THE URBANIZATION OF GREEN INTERNATIONALISM - YO...

The recent rise of cities in global environmental politics has stimulated remarkable debates
about sustainable urban development and the geopolitics of a changing world order no longer
defined by tightly bordered national regimes. This book explores this major theme by drawing on
approaches that document the diverse histories and emergent geographies of internationalism. It
is no longer possible  the book argues  to analyze the global politics of the environment
without considering its various urbanization(s)  wherein multiple actors are reforming 
reassembling and adapting to nascent threats posed by global ecological decay. The ongoing
imposition and abrasion of different world orders-Westphalian and post-Westphalian-further
suggests we need a wider frame to capture new kinds of urbanized spaces and global green
politics. The book will appeal to students  scholars  and practitioners interested in global
sustainability  urban development  planning  politics  and international affairs. Case studies
and grounded examples of green internationalism in urban action ultimately explore how select
city-regions like Cape Town  Los Angeles  and Melbourne are trying to negotiate and actually
work through this postulated dilemma.
