GENDER DEVELOPMENT AND SOCIAL CHANGE CONTOURS...

This open access book sets out the contours of feminist political ecology (FPE) as a major
contribution to ongoing debates in the field. As Professor Lyla Mehta says in her Foreword  the
book is foregrounding multiple ways of knowing and being  thus enabling new conceptions of
politics  justice and alternatives to dominant  capitalist development trajectories. In an
innovative methodological twist  the edited book engages the reader in conversations that have
emerged from the multi-sited and cross-generational dialogues of the Well-Being Ecology Gender
cOmmunities (WEGO) network over the last four years. The conversations explore topics that
range from climate change and extractivism  to body politics and health  degrowth  care and
community well-being. The authors reflect on their collective learning process as they map out
the new directions of FPE research and analysis. The chapters highlight WEGO transnational
transdisciplinary conversations with local communities  social movements and different academic
spaces. The book foregrounds the ethics of doing feminist work inside and outside academe and
brings to life the importance of doing reflexive research aware of situated historical and
contemporary geographical contours of power.
