Prompt: Where is the politics in political ecology?

On the heels of the generally excellent responses to the first prompt on defining political ecology, we follow Peter Walker (2007) in asking, Where is the politics in political ecology?

Respondents are encouraged to answer this question by taking any approach they see fit- conventional or otherwise. Our single stipulation is that responses be around 300 words (artwork is also gladly accepted!).

We encourage a wide range of responses, from beginning graduate students to senior faculty, and we anticipate participation from diverse disciplinary perspectives. To submit, please send your response to ukpewg [at] gmail [dot] com by Tuesday, December 13. Responses will be published shortly thereafter.

Responses are up!
