It combines ecocriticial and critical geopolitical approaches to explore three main themes: dystopian visions, the relationship between the human, post-human, and \"nature\" and speciesism and carnism. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe importance of popular culture in the construction of geopolitical discourse is widely recognized. From ecocriticism, we also appreciate that literature, cinema, or theatre can offer a mirror of what the individual author wants to communicate about the relationship between the human being and what can be defined as non-human. This book provides an analysis of environmental discourses with the theoretical tools of critical geopolitics and the analytical methodology of ecocriticism. It develops and disseminates a new scientific approach, defined as \"ecocritical geopolitics\", to offer an idea of the power of popular culture in the realization of environmental discourse. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferencing sources as diverse as \u003cem\u003eThe Road\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Shape of Water\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eLady and the Tramp, \u003c\/em\u003e and TV cooking shows, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of geography, environmental studies, film studies, and environmental humanities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elena Dell'agnese\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032010746\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032010748\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/27\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.48d","brand":"Elena Dell'agnese","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43982492958975,"sku":"9781032010748","price":52.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_61db821f-707c-474b-b724-6bdfbf75496b.jpg?v=1683261473","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ecocritical-geopolitics-elena-dellagnese-9781032010748","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
