Environmental sustainability

Gynna Farith Millan Franco and Toby Miller

Chapter 41 in Handbook of Media and Communication Governance, 2024, pp 552-567 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The term ‘governance’ signifies neoliberal genuflections to the plutocratic domination of public policy. This chapter engages that tendency from the perspective of environmental issues in Colombia. We review relevant research and theory and situate the struggles of Afro-indigenous environmental defenders in their historical context, concluding that activism and theorization of the environment from beyond the Global North hold the key to our planetary future as much as deliberations from on-high, be they scholarly, corporate, journalistic or governmental.
