Environmental and developmental challenges are often framed by the global and planetary scale, but in a vague or apolitical manner. This book develops a much-needed, theoretically rigorous and politicised concept of the planetary scale within the field of environment and development.

Global Development and Environment by Joe Williams and James Duminy offers an in-depth examination of these issues, proposing a fresh perspective that integrates both scholarly and practical insights. It aims to redefine how we understand the impact and interconnectedness of developmental strategies and environmental concerns on a planetary level.

This book is essential for those interested in a profound reinterpretation of global environmental politics, presenting a nuanced approach that considers both critical theoretical frameworks and the real-world implications of development policies. It's an invaluable resource for students, researchers and policymakers keen on understanding the complexities of our planet's future.
