Saving the “lungs of the city”
We have long witnessed conservation movements emerging in tandem with industrial expansion and urbanisation, but such impetus took a new turn in the 1960s and 1970s with the global birth of a new kind of urban environmental policy. In this comparative case study, we provide a close examination of two urban movements at the forefront of a new era of environmentalism, movements that bore lasting environmental policy agendas in their respective citi…

Introduction - Volume 7, Issue 1
Peace Studies and the Limits to Growth
150 Peace Studies and the Limits to Growth Selina Gallo-Cruz Scientists have issued increasingly dire warnings about the present and future danger posed by ecological overshoot. Peace scholars’ entrée into this discourse is often through a concern over extractive politics, a central locus for how conflicts are bound up in environmental destruction at the hands of the same industries responsible for ecological decline. Policy and practical respons…
Peacebuilding, Liberian Women, and the Invisible Hand of Conflict in the Postwar Era
Liberian women gained international acclaim for their courage and persistence in bringing warring factions into a peace agreement in 2003, after a 14-year-long civil war that devastated the country, with over 250,000 killed, millions displaced, and a population left traumatized and in political and economic ruin. This study explores the challenges that women have faced in the years following the civil war with a focus on whether the international…
Films at the fault line of 'deep' and 'bright' greens in the environmental movement
In this article, I review two films challenging the technological solutions and assumptions of 'bright green' environmentalism, Planet of the Humans and Bright Green Lies. I explain the ways these films showcase a 'deep green' challenge to what is charged as magical thinking in proposals for renewable energy transition. I summarize how filmmakers explore evidence that calls into question the potential for new forms of industrial expansion to save…
Political Invisibility and Mobilization
Nonviolence beyond the state
Studies of nonviolence have taught us much about what makes nonviolence successful, emphasizing the importance of local circumstance and strategy. Little attention has been given to the effect of ties with international organizations on nonviolence: that is, how the embeddedness of local actors in global networks shapes nonviolent mobilization. In this article, a world society framework is applied with the objective of understanding the transnati…
American Mothers of Nonviolence
This chapter explores the historical relationship between and dynamics among feminists and nonviolent activists in the United States, surveying three waves of feminist nonviolent mobilization and interrogating the contributions to and erasure of feminist thinking from popular nonviolence histories. The US feminist and nonviolence movements were born of the same social heart among early, nonviolent abolitionists. It was from the experience of marg…
The insufficient imagery of top-down, bottom-up in global movements analysis
Scholars have shown various ways in which new types of transnational interdependence influence conflicts and resistance. Conventional conceptualization often depicts movements as emerging from the 'bottom-up' efforts of distinctive, individual collectives to challenge the 'top-down' hegemony of bureaucratic states, multinational corporations, and some international civil society organizations. But globalization scholars, and particularly those de…
