This book calls for a collective strengthening of the progressive dimension of climate action
in the face of continued myopic governmental response. Delina argues that consent must be
revoked and power realigned to avoid suffering the consequences of unabated climate change. He
looks back at the mechanisms that make previous social mobilizations successful to design
strategies that would advance a new hegemonic agenda. This new agenda calls for the culturing
of contemporary human societies towards a hegemony characterized by just emancipations and
sustainable transformations. Mining select histories from India the United States the
Philippines and Burma the book explores topics including visioning and identity building
framing triggering pressure boosting publicity and diversifying networks as strategic tools
to the repertoires of climate action groups organizations and institutions. It will be of
great value to academics and practitioners as well as to anyone interested in how to actively
combat climate change.
