Semester Offered: First Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 credits
Attribute: 4SS, CD, WINT

Political ecology (PE) examines how political, economic, and cultural processes - each broadly defined - are mutually entangled with social-environmental relationships and environmental change in places where people have a strong material and cultural attachment to their environment. With firm roots in both geography and anthropology, political ecology characterizes an inter-disciplinary approach to understanding how changing social processes shape and reflect environmental change, and especially in the 'global south'.
