  • Revisiting Capabilities and Climate Justice: How Climate Turbulence Undermines Capabilities, and How to Design Just Adaptation in Response

    Open Access•David Schlosberg•ARTICLE•Ethics & International Affairs•2026

    Climate change is deeply unsettling—both ecologically, as reflected in the rise of climate disasters and biodiversity loss, and materially, as seen in the widespread disruptions and displacements it causes. The impacts of climate change are increasingly experienced as constant and material impact on bodies, and the disruption and displacement of connections to place and entangled environments. This continuous turbulence is creating an experience …

  • Enablers of community‐led action in Australian climate disasters: Recognising the role of pre‐existing social foundations and local knowledges

    Open Access•Scott Webster, David Schlosberg et al.•ARTICLE•Disasters•2026

    This study explores how disaster‐impacted communities in New South Wales, Australia, mobilised during and after the bushfire crisis of 2019–20 and multiple catastrophic floods between 2020 and 2022. Interviews were conducted across three regions: Northern Rivers; Blue Mountains; and Hawkesbury. Our findings illuminate how community‐led actions are driven by a broad range of ‘local knowledges’, based in and organised through long‐standing networks…

  • Realising environmental justice: Strategy and tactics for transformation

    Open Access•David Schlosberg, Lauren Rickards et al.•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning C…•2026•References: 59

    This paper examines the multiple ways that environmental justice scholars and activists understand the task of creating real change. It asks what forms of social movement organising, strategy, and tactics create the enabling conditions for environmental justice. Reporting on a large international study using Q methodology to empirically examine the discourses emerging and circulating about EJ globally, we outline the patterns of thinking and prac…

  • Recognition and relationship-building: Key ingredients for effective collaboration between disaster management agencies and community

    Open Access•Emma Pittaway, Jo Longman et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of Disaster…•2025

    The role played by communities in all phases of disasters is critical, yet genuine collaboration between community-led groups and disaster management agencies remains scarce. This paper examines the dynamics of these interactions in the aftermath of a catastrophic flood and landslip event in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales, Australia, in 2022. Using qualitative data from 41 interviews undertaken one to two years after the disaster, …

  • Acknowledging the historic presence of justice in climate research

  • Ecological Crises and Ecopolitics Research in Australia

    Open Access•Matt Mcdonald, Susan Park et al.•ARTICLE•Australian Journal of Politics &…•2025

    It is difficult to exaggerate the scale of contemporary ecological crises. These challenges, particularly climate change, necessitate new modes of politics and policy, even potentially new institutions, that seem anathema to the emphases of traditional accounts of environmental political science. In this paper, we explore contemporary ecopolitics research in Australia that is attempting to come to terms with the reality of ecological crises and t…

  • Compounding barriers to environmental justice

    Open Access•R Pearse, David Schlosberg et al.•ARTICLE•Local Environment•2025•Cited by: 1•References: 59

    This paper examines how environmental justice (EJ) activists and scholars experience and think about the barriers to beneficial change. It reports findings from an international study that used Q methodology. We ask: how do activists and scholars view the barriers to realising environmental justice goals of movements? What insights from their political practice and research can extend contemporary theories of environmental justice? Our data revea…

  • Authors’ response

    In his short response essay, Joshua C. Gellers (2024) offers three criticisms of the arguments we make in ‘What matter matters as a matter of justice?’ (Winter and Schlosberg 2023). While we are us

  • Critical environmental justice in contemporary scholarship and movements: Consensus and Plurality of the Discourse

    Open Access•David Schlosberg, Lauren Rickards et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Politics•2025•Cited by: 4•References: 38

    Critical environmental justice (EJ) scholars, focused on the role of race, gender, capital, colonization, and power as key to environmental injustice, argue that EJ thinking and practice should move past the traditional focus on liberal and state-based remedies. There are many scholarly accounts of critical EJ, but no systematic examinations of such views in practice. This paper reports on a survey of the meanings of EJ circulating among activist…

  • From postmaterialism to sustainable materialism: The Environmental Politics of Practice-Based Movements

    David Schlosberg•ARTICLE•Environmental Politics•2025•Cited by: 31•References: 39

    There are some key and unique properties of groups concerned with environmental practices in the material flows of everyday life, here called sustainable materialism. These movements embody a range of motivations and discourses, in particular in response to perceptions of the power, injustice, and ecological impact of problematic food systems, energy systems, and various supply chains that provide for everyday needs. Activist conceptions of susta…

  • Climate imaginaries as praxis

    Open Access•Danielle Celermajer, Maria Cardoso et al.•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning E Nature…•2024•Cited by: 10•References: 33

    As communities around the world grapple with the impacts of climate change on the basic support systems of life, their future climate imaginaries both shape and are shaped by actions and material realities. This paper argues that the three globally dominant imaginaries of a climate changed future, which we call 'business as usual', 'techno-fix' and 'apocalypse' - fail to encourage actions that fundamentally challenge or transform the arrangements…

  • What matter matters as a matter of justice

    Open Access•Calvert J Winter, David Schlosberg•ARTICLE•Environmental Politics•2024•Cited by: 6•References: 52

    With planet-wide environmental unravelling ideas of multispecies and planetary justice are gaining multidisciplinary attention. They frame a set of ethical, moral and political obligations to life-on-Earth. While it is clear it is humans who bear the duties and obligations of justice, who or what is the subject of justice-beyond-human varies widely: Some limit the subject to sentient animals, others include all living things. We argue for a more …

  • A Political Theory for a Multispecies, Climate-Challenged World: 2050

    Open Access•Danielle Celermajer, David Schlosberg et al.•ARTICLE•Political Theory•2023•Cited by: 11•References: 25

    This essay is part of a special issue celebrating 50 years of Political Theory. The ambition of the editors was to mark this half century not with a retrospective but with a confabulation of futures. Contributors were asked: What will political theory look and sound like in the next century and beyond? What claims might political theorists or their descendants be making in ten, twenty-five, fifty, a hundred years’ time? How might they vindicate t…

  • Solar geoengineering: The case for an international non‐use agreement

    Open Access•Felix Biermann, Jeroen Oomen et al.•ARTICLE•Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews…•2022•Cited by: 24•References: 6

    Solar geoengineering is gaining prominence in climate change debates as an issue worth studying; for some it is even a potential future policy option. We argue here against this increasing normalization of solar geoengineering as a speculative part of the climate policy portfolio. We contend, in particular, that solar geoengineering at planetary scale is not governable in a globally inclusive and just manner within the current international polit…

  • In the land of the “fair go”: Global food policy lessons beyond the charity model

    Omar Elkharouf, Kate Cox et al.•ARTICLE•Local Environment•2021

    Food insecurity in Australia is on the rise, yet it remains a serious and underappreciated policy issue. The demand for and expansion of food banks, community agencies, and school breakfast programmes in Australia has led to the emergency food relief system being referred to as an “industry” in itself. The COVID-19 pandemic, and the associated financial crisis, have only exacerbated the challenge of putting food onto the table. These unprecedente…

  • Multispecies justice: Theories, challenges, and a research agenda for environmental politics

    Danielle Celermajer, David Schlosberg et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Politics•2021

    This essay seeks to open a conversation about multispecies justice in environmental politics. It sets out some of the theoretical approaches, key areas of exploration, and obvious challenges that come with rethinking a core plank of liberal theory and politics. First, we discuss some of the diverse scholarly fields that have influenced the emergence of multispecies justice. We then discuss core concerns at the centre of this reconfiguration of ju…

  • Between environmental and ecological democracy: Theory and practice at the democracy-environment nexus

    Open Access•Jeffrey Pickering, Karin Bäckstrand et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Environmental Policy &…•2020

    Concepts of ecological and environmental democracy seek to reconcile two normative ideals: ensuring environmental sustainability while safeguarding democracy. These ideals are frequently conceived as being in conflict, as democracy is perceived as too slow and cumbersome to deliver the urgent large-scale collective action needed to tackle environmental problems. Theories addressing the democracy-environment nexus can be situated on a spectrum fro…

  • Shock and place: Reorienting resilience thinking

    Hannah Della Bosca, David Schlosberg et al.•ARTICLE•Local Environment•2020

    This article employs a place-based resilience approach to support a procedural shift from a focus on specific, tangible outcomes towards a focus on processes that support wellbeing. We draw upon resident experiences of a bushfire event and a security event, later termed a terror event, and use a place-aware analysis to identify intangible yet significant patterns of disruption. A reoriented resilience approach requires innovative community initia…

  • Turf wars: Using social media network analysis to examine the suspected astroturfing campaign for the Adani Carmichael Coal mine on Twitter

    Open Access•Mitchell Hobbs, Hannah Della Bosca et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Public Affairs•2020•Cited by: 3•References: 8

    This article uses social media network analysis (SMNA) to examine whether there was an astroturfing campaign on Twitter in support of the Adani Carmichael coal mine in 2017. It shows that SMNA can be used to visualize and analyze outsider lobbying activity in issue arenas and is capable of identifying networks of fake opinion. This study found that in April 2017, there was a small network of accounts that made a series of suspiciously similar pro…

  • Multispecies justice: Climate‐just futures with, for and beyond humans

    Open Access•Petra Tschakert, David Schlosberg et al.•ARTICLE•Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews…•2020•Cited by: 49•References: 26

    In 2019, the climate emergency entered mainstream debates. The normative frame of climate justice as conceived in academia, policy arenas, and grassroots action, although imperative and growing in popularity across climate movements, is no longer adequate to address this emergency. This is for two reasons: first, as a framing for the problem, current notions of climate justice are insufficient to overcome the persistent silencing of voices belong…

  • Reconceiving Environmental Justice: Global Movements And Political Theories

    David Schlosberg•ARTICLE•Environmental Politics•2004•Cited by: 425•References: 17

    While calls for 'environmental justice' have grown recently, very little attention has been paid to exactly what the 'justice' of environmental justice refers to, particularly in the realm of social movement demands. Most understandings of environmental justice refer to the issue of equity, or the distribution of environmental ills and benefits. But defining environmental justice as equity is incomplete, as activists, communities, and non-governm…

  • Trends and Directions in Environmental Justice: From Inequity to Everyday Life, Community, and Just Sustainabilities

    Open Access•Julian Agyeman, David Schlosberg et al.•ARTICLE•Annual Review of Environment and…•2016•Cited by: 182•References: 8

    This article begins with a review and synthesis of some of the key theories, scholars, case examples, debates, methods, and (multiple) interpretations of environmental justice (EJ), as well as its expansion and globalization. We then look to some newly emerging themes, actions, and strategies for EJ and just sustainabilities. First, we look at the practices and materials of everyday life, illustrated by food and energy movements; second, the ongo…

  • From environmental to climate justice: Climate change and the discourse of environmental justice

    Open Access•David Schlosberg, Lisette B Collins•ARTICLE•Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews…•2014•Cited by: 177•References: 16

    Environmental justice is a major movement and organizing discourse in the environmental politics arena, and both the movement and the idea have had a large influence on the way that climate justice has been conceptualized. While most discussions of climate justice in the academic literature focus on ideal conceptions and normative arguments of justice theory, or on the pragmatic policy of the more elite environmental nongovernmental organizations…

  • Theorising environmental justice: The Expanding Sphere of a Discourse

    David Schlosberg•ARTICLE•Environmental Politics•2013•Cited by: 122•References: 48

    Environmental justice has been a central concern in a range of disciplines, and both the concept and its coverage have expanded substantially in the past two decades. I examine this development in three key ways. First, I explore how early work on environmental justice pushed beyond many boundaries: it challenged the very notion of ‘environment’, examined the construction of injustice beyond inequity, and illustrated the potential of pluralistic …

  • Climate Justice and Capabilities: A Framework for Adaptation Policy

    Open Access•David Schlosberg•ARTICLE•Ethics & International Affairs•2012•Cited by: 103•References: 10

    This article lays out a capabilities and justice-based approach to the development of adaptation policy. While many theories of climate justice remain focused on ideal theories for global mitigation, the argument here is for a turn to just adaptation, using a capabilities framework to encompass vulnerability, social recognition, and public participation in policy responses. This article argues for a broadly defined capabilities approach to climat…

  • Indigenous Struggles, Environmental Justice, and Community Capabilities

    David Schlosberg, David Carruthers•ARTICLE•Global Environmental Politics•2010•Cited by: 90•References: 8

    Environmental justice is often defined in terms of the distribution (or maldistribution) of environmental goods and bads. Activists and scholars have also focused on issues of cultural recognition and political participation. This article posits a capabilities-based conception of environmental justice. We argue that environmental challenges raised by indigenous communities demonstrate a broad, complex conception of environmental justice focused o…

  • The new environmentalism of everyday life: Sustainability, material flows and movements

    Open Access•David Schlosberg, Romand Coles•ARTICLE•Contemporary Political Theory•2016•Cited by: 80•References: 27

    This article analyzes recent developments in environmental activism, in particular movements focused on reconfiguring material flows. The desire for sustainability has spawned an interest in changing the material relationship between humans, other beings, and the non-human realm. No longer willing to take part in unsustainable practices and institutions, and not satisfied with purely individualistic and consumer responses, a growing focus of envi…

  • Environmental Transformation of the State: The USA, Norway, Germany and the UK

    Open Access•John S Dryzek, Christian Hunold et al.•ARTICLE•Political Studies•2002•Cited by: 41•References: 29

    Modern states underwent two major transformations that produced first, the liberal capitalist state and second, the welfare state. Each was accompanied by the migration of a previously confrontational movement into the core of the state. In the creation of the liberal capitalist state, the bourgeoisie could harmonize with the state's emerging interest in economic growth. In the creation of the welfare state, the organized working class could harm…

  • Communicative Action in Practice: Intersubjectivity and New Social Movements

    Open Access•David Schlosberg•ARTICLE•Political Studies•1995•Cited by: 19•References: 2

    Critical theory has two distinct aims: the analysis and critique of particular existing oppressions, and the more emancipatory or reconstructive method or goal needed to move beyond current conditions. But often critical theory is too preoccupied with the first moment to consider the second. This essay examines the evolution of the notion of communicative action and a number of current debates surrounding especially Habermas's theory. It then exa…

    How can public engagement assist in the development of just processes and outcomes in adaptation discourse and policymaking? A concern with justice is at the center of thinking about adaptation that is not only resilient, but also public, engaging, and transformative. Theoretically, the intersection of adaptation, transformation, and environmental and climate justice is examined, before exploring the specific concerns and normative foundations fo…

Networking is a strategy that has evolved in opposition to perceived problems with centralised organisations, and out of the inherent diversity of the movement. This form of organising not only proposes a remedy to the limitations of the conventional model, but is also more able to confront changes in the nature of power, capital, and …

Despite early attempts by individuals and groups to promote such ideas in the United States, both governmen…

    Pluralism has seen a major revival in the recent theoretical literature. After years of thorough critique, a purge of sorts, and, finally, relative obscurity, political and social theorists have begun to resurrect pluralist themes, even if they often do not acknowledge the term.

  • Reconceiving Environmental Justice: Global Movements And Political Theories

    David Schlosberg•ARTICLE•Environmental Politics•2004•Cited by: 425•References: 17

    While calls for 'environmental justice' have grown recently, very little attention has been paid to exactly what the 'justice' of environmental justice refers to, particularly in the realm of social movement demands. Most understandings of environmental justice refer to the issue of equity, or the distribution of environmental ills and benefits. But defining environmental justice as equity is incomplete, as activists, communities, and non-governm…

  • Democracy and the Environment on the Internet: Electronic Citizen Participation in Regulatory Rulemaking

    Open Access•Zavestoski, Stephen Zavestoski et al.•ARTICLE•Science Technology & Human Values•2006•Cited by: 5•References: 7

    We hypothesize that recent uses of the Internet as a public-participation mechanism in the United States fail to overcome the adversarial culture that characterizes the American regulatory process. Although the Internet has the potential to facilitate deliberative processes that could result in more widespread public involvement, greater transparency in government processes, and a more satisfied citizenry, we argue that efforts to implement Inter…

  • Distribution and Beyond: Conceptions of Justice in Contemporary Theory and Practice

    David Schlosberg•CHAPTER•DEFINING ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE:…•2007

    This chapter explores recent theories of justice, focusing on those that move beyond a sole emphasis on the traditional distributive paradigm. Particular attention is paid to various theories of recognition, the capabilities approach, and participatory justice. Ultimately, the argument is that a thorough understanding and approach to justice requires us to see the linkages between distribution, recognition, capabilities, and participation.

  • Defining Environmental Justice: Theories, Movements, and Nature

    David Schlosberg•BOOK•DEFINING ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE:…•2007

    The basic task of this book is to explore what, exactly, is meant by ‘justice’ in definitions of environmental and ecological justice. It examines how the term is used in both self-described environmental justice movements and in theories of environmental and ecological justice. The central argument is that a theory and practice of environmental justice necessarily includes distributive conceptions of justice, but must also embrace notions of jus…

  • Democracy and E-Rulemaking: Web-Based Technologies, Participation, and the Potential for Deliberation

    David Schlosberg, Zavestoski et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Information Technology…•2007•Cited by: 6•References: 15

    Deliberative democratic theorists and public participation scholars have become increasingly interested in institutionalized forms of citizen discourse with the state, including those facilitated by information technology. However, there have been very few empirical studies of the claims that the Internet will make public participation more inclusive and deliberative. We report the results of an exploratory survey of 1,556 citizen participants in…

  • Ecological modernisation, American style

    David Schlosberg, Sara R Rinfret et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Politics•2008•Cited by: 14•References: 14

    The United States lags behind European countries in adopting ecological modernisation policies and practices. Ecological modernisation (EM), as it has been developed in the EU, emphasises industrial efficiency and technological development in order to move beyond the perceived conflict between economic development and environmental quality. Despite early attempts by individuals and groups to promote such ideas in the United States, both governmen…

    David Schlosberg, David Carruthers•ARTICLE•Global Environmental Politics•2010•Cited by: 90•References: 8

    Environmental justice is often defined in terms of the distribution (or maldistribution) of environmental goods and bads. Activists and scholars have also focused on issues of cultural recognition and political participation. This article posits a capabilities-based conception of environmental justice. We argue that environmental challenges raised by indigenous communities demonstrate a broad, complex conception of environmental justice focused o…
