The Green Economy in the Global South: Experiences, Redistributions and Resistance

As multiple visions for a Green Economy seek to become real, so are green economic initiatives in the global South multiplying.

The articles included in this collection bring together a multidisciplinary team of scholars and a range of case studies, from forestry governance to tourism to carbon finance, to provide nuanced analyses of Green Economy experiences in the global South – examining the opportunities they provide, the redistributions they entail and the kinds of resistance they face.
