Oulton, Lucy, Iris Murdoch's Wild Imagination: Nature and the Environment. (Iris Murdoch Today) 252 pp. 2025:5 (Palgrave Macmillan, UK) <747-70>
ISBN 978-3-031-87832-9 hard ¥28,244.- (税込) EUR 119.99 *

This book presents the first ecocritical study of novelist, philosopher, poet and public intellectual Iris Murdoch (1919-1999). It brings her love of the natural world into the light, arguing for its critical significance when Murdoch conveys an awareness of intricately interconnected ecologies through her work: an awareness that anticipates the motivations and concerns of modern-day environmental humanities. The book is the first of its kind to assess some of Murdoch's poems, seen as early articulation of the environmental imagination that finds recurrent expression in her novels, philosophical writings and personal journals throughout her writing life. This book offers a significant entry point for a new research direction in Murdoch studies by explicating her unique perspective on the natural world.

Salih, M. A. M., Development Theory and Climate Change. 176 pp. 2025:9 (E. Elgar, UK) <747-296>
ISBN 978-1-80088-813-5 hard ¥24,029.- (税込) GB£ 85.00

Development Theory and Climate Change is an illuminating exploration of the decline and subsequent revival of development theories. M.A. Mohamed Salih demonstrates how the end of the Cold War and the ascendancy of neoliberal global capitalism have caused the revival of core conceptual frameworks derived from modernisation, dependency and the world system.M.A. Mohamed Salih discusses the way in which these development theories have earlier prioritised ideology over authentic progress and neglected to consider the environment and the experiences of women in their analyses of development. He reflects on ecofeminist, political ecology feminist and post-development discourses which offer alternatives to neoliberal international climate change policies, as well as activists such as Extinction Rebellion, who reject these policies entirely. The book ultimately proposes a reassessment of development theory beyond the climate change crisis, interrogating relations between developing and more developed industrially advanced countries in the Anthropocene.Students and scholars of development studies, environmental and human geography and sociology and sociological theory will greatly benefit from this pioneering book. Interdisciplinary in scope, it is also a vital resource for policymakers and practitioners working in climate change and development, as well as environmental activists and NGOs.

Inal, Onur, Gateway to the Mediterranean: An Environmental History of Late Ottoman Izmir. (Studies in Environment and History) 250 pp. 2025:7 (Cambridge U. Pr., UK) <747-1056>
ISBN 978-1-009-60726-1 hard ¥25,443.- (税込) GB£ 90.00

This in-depth exploration of Ottoman Izmir is the first book to study a Mediterranean port city through an environmental historical lens. Onur Inal documents the development of this major Eastern Mediterranean port-city from small coastal town, to transport hub, to a gateway linking the river valleys of Western Anatolia to worldwide markets. Key to this evolution, he argues, was the relationship between a city and countryside which not only shared a common past, but fundamentally reshaped each other during the years of the late Ottoman Empire. Introducing a cast of both human and non-human historical actors, including camels, horses and micro-organisms, Inal demonstrates the transformative impact of their interaction on the city and its hinterlands. By proposing the 'gateway city' model, this rich analysis provides an alternative way to understand the creation of an integrated economic and ecological space in Western Anatolia.

チェルノブイリの子どもたち-原子力災害のトランスナショナルな歴史
Arndt, Melanie, Chernobyl Children: A Transnational History of a Nuclear Disaster. (Studies in Environment and History) 368 pp. 2025:7 (Cambridge U. Pr., UK) <747-1105>
ISBN 978-1-009-45776-7 hard ¥8,477.- (税込) GB£ 29.99

In the wake of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, more than a million Belarusian, Ukrainian, and Russian children were sent abroad. Aided by the unprecedented efforts of transnational NGOs and private individuals, these children were meant to escape and recover from radiation exposure, but also from the increasing hardships of everyday life in post-Soviet society. Through this opening of the Soviet Union, hundreds of thousands of people in over forty countries witnessed the ecological, medical, social and political consequences of the disaster for the human beings involved. This awareness transformed the accident into a global catastrophe which could happen anywhere and have widespread impact. In this brilliantly insightful work, Melanie Arndt demonstrates that the Chernobyl children were both witness to and representative of a vanishing bipolar world order and the future of life in the Anthropocene, an age in which the human impact on the planet is increasingly borderless.

Degroot, Dagomar, Ripples on the Cosmic Ocean: An Environmental History of Our Place in the Solar System. 368 pp. 2025:10 (Belknap Pr., US) <747-1111>
ISBN 978-0-674-98650-3 hard ¥6,652.- (税込) US$ 32.00

From solar storms to asteroid impacts, the untold story of how environmental change throughout the cosmos shaped human history.Our solar system is a dynamic place where asteroids careen off course and solar winds hurl charged particles across billions of miles of space. Yet we seldom consider how these events, so immense in scale, influence our comparatively minuscule corner of the cosmos: planet Earth.In Ripples on the Cosmic Ocean, Dagomar Degroot traces the surprising threads linking human endeavor to the rest of the solar system. He shows how variability in planetary environments shaped geopolitics, spurred scientific and cultural innovation, and encouraged new ideas about the emergence and ultimate fate of life. Martian dust storms altered the trajectory of the Cold War and inspired fantastical stories about alien civilizations. Comet impacts on Jupiter led to the first planetary defense strategy. And volcanic eruptions spewed sulfuric acid into Venus's atmosphere, exposing the existential risks of climate change at home.In the dawning era of space settlement, cosmic environments are becoming increasingly vulnerable to human activity. They may also hold the key to slowing the destruction of environments on Earth. Ripples on the Cosmic Ocean asks what it will take to develop an interplanetary environmentalism across a vast mosaic of entangled worlds.

Epstein, William M., Climate Change, Social Inequality, and Doom. 336 pp. 2025:11 (Johns Hopkins U. Pr., US) <747-1113>
ISBN 978-1-4214-5230-2 paper ¥10,384.- (税込) US$ 49.95

A critical examination of how inequality and cultural inertia hinder meaningful climate action.The challenges of climate change, like so many issues today, are not evenly distributed across social and economic lines. In this sobering exploration of the interconnected crises of climate change and social inequality, William M. Epstein examines how entrenched cultural values and systemic inequities thwart meaningful climate action, driving humanity closer to catastrophic consequences. Epstein outlines three potential climate futures-ranging from manageable to devastating-and scrutinizes society's inability to confront these realities with meaningful action. He argues that solutions exist, but they demand sacrifices and transformations that clash with deeply rooted societal norms. Epstein highlights the global indifference to equality and environmental stewardship and exposes the tragic inertia that imperils democracy, the environment, and humanity itself. By examining the broader implications of inequality-ranging from resource distribution to policy inertia-he reveals how societal values shape environmental outcomes and the growing divide between those who bear the brunt of climate change and those who remain insulated. Offering a sharp critique of romanticized individualism and its role in undermining collective action, this provocative book challenges readers to rethink society's capacity and willingness to confront existential and environmental threats. A profound and timely work, Climate Change, Social Inequality, and Doom confronts the moral and political failures that define the climate crisis and reveals the stark choice between an equitable, sustainable future and irreversible decline.

Green, Jessica F., Existential Politics: Why Global Climate Institutions Are Failing and How to Fix Them. 208 pp. 2025:10 (Princeton U. Pr., US) <747-1116>
ISBN 978-0-691-24523-2 hard ¥19,750.- (税込) US$ 95.00
ISBN 978-0-691-24524-9 paper ¥6,226.- (税込) US$ 29.95

A new way to tackle the real politics of climate change through asset revaluationIt's no secret that the Paris Agreement and voluntary efforts to address climate change are failing. Governments have spent three decades crafting international rules to manage the climate crisis yet have made little progress on decarbonization. In Existential Politics, Jessica Green explains why this is unsurprising: governments have misdiagnosed the political problem of climate change, focusing relentlessly on measuring, reporting, and trading emissions. This technical approach of "managing tons" ignores the ways that climate change and climate policy will revalue assets, creating winners and losers. Policies such as net zero, carbon pricing, and offsets all cater to the losers-owners of fossil assets.Ultimately, Green contends, climate change is a political problem. Climate politics should be understood as existential-creating conflicts that arise when some actors face the prospect of the devaluation or elimination of their assets or competition from the creation of new ones. Fossil asset owners, such as oil and gas companies and electric utilities, stand to lose trillions in the energy transition. Thus, they are fighting to slow decarbonization and preserve the value of their assets. Green asset owners, who will be the basis of the decarbonized economy, are fewer in number and relatively weak politically.Green proposes using international tax, finance, and trade institutions to create new green asset owners and constrain fossil asset owners, reducing their clout. Domestic investments in green assets, facilitated by global trade rules, can build the political power of green asset owners

Henning, Michelle, A Dirty History of Photography: Chemistry, Fog, and Empire. 320 pp. 2025:12 (U. Chicago Pr., US) <747-1117>
ISBN 978-0-226-84067-3 hard ¥7,795.- (税込) US$ 37.50

An environmental history of chemical photography through the lens of its deep connections to empire and industry. Dependent on the extractive practices of fossil-fueled industrial capitalism, chemical photography's emulsions and films were highly sensitive to polluted atmospheres, and photographic companies had to work hard to control this sensitivity. Drawing on histories of empire, coal, and chemistry and from the archives of British photographic manufacturer Ilford Limited, Michelle Henning exposes the ways photography shaped how we see and understand the atmosphere while leaving its toxic residues in the air, soil, and water. Structured as thirty-six short chapters and with over seventy illustrations, this innovative book begins in interwar London, follows the supply of Ilford products to photographers on the West African coast, and considers photography as a military technology linked to the development of chemical warfare. Combining close readings of photographs with discussions of low-light, tropical, and aerial photography, Henning examines the extraction and development of photographic materials, their role in the current environmental crisis, and how they have shaped experiences of time and the environment.

Drawing on the framework of the Paris Agreement and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, Peter Newman outlines how cities can achieve net zero and sustainability agendas together as part of the global shift to a new economy.Newman examines key strategies for developing net zero cities, showing that core technologies of renewable energy, batteries and electric vehicles are commercially available but that how best to integrate them into different parts of cities is now the urban practitioner's role. He explores projects that are demonstrating net zero with sustainability outcomes and even net positive with regenerative urbanism, highlighting the challenges of integrating new techniques into existing systems rapidly and at scale. Analysing theories of creative destruction, urban fabrics and structural change alongside detailed case studies, the book reflects on the history of turbulent change, ultimately demonstrating that there is hope of reaching full net zero by 2050, with plans for subsequent global cooling.Net Zero Cities with Sustainability is an invaluable resource for urban professionals and practitioners in a range of disciplines, including energy, environment, planning, design, business and economic development. Its insights will also benefit students and scholars of sustainability, geography, public policy, town planning and transport.

A nuanced analysis takes a California oil spill as its point of departure to show how affluent homeowners pushed for an environmentalism that would protect not only the earth but also property and community norms. A massive oil spill in the Pacific Ocean near Santa Barbara, California, in 1969 quickly became a landmark in the history of American environmentalism, helping to inspire the creation of both the Environmental Protection Agency and Earth Day. But what role did the history of Santa Barbara itself play in this? As Pollyanna Rhee shows, the city's past and demographics were essential to the portrayal of the oil spill as momentous. Moreover, well-off and influential Santa Barbarans were positioned to "domesticate" the larger environmental movement by embodying the argument that individual homes and families-not society as a whole-needed protection from environmental abuses. This soon would put environmental rhetoric and power to fundamentally conservative-not radical-ends.

Staab, Philipp, Systemkrise: Legitimationsprobleme im gruenen Kapitalismus. (edition suhrkamp 2823) 180 S. 2025:10 (Suhrkamp, GW) <747-1130>

Vor ein paar Jahren noch gingen Hunderttausende fuer ambitioniertere Klimaziele auf die Strasse. Heute protestieren vor allem jene Gruppen, die von einer solchen Politik belastet wuerden: Landwirte, Pendler, Hauseigentuemer. Das Projekt einer oekologischen Transformation scheint erschoepft. Philipp Staab diagnostiziert eine tiefgreifende Systemkrise. Die Aussicht auf Modernisierung erzeugt nicht laenger Legitimitaet. Viele Buerger:innen empfinden Steuerungsversuche des Staates als uebergriffig. Immer oefter wird aus Abwehr sogar offene Ablehnung nicht nur der Klimawende, sondern liberaler Grundwerte und der Demokratie als solcher. Der ≫gruene Fortschritt≪, so Staab, ist selbst zur Quelle von Instabilitaet geworden. An die Stelle des Versprechens einer helleren Zukunft ist eine Utopie des Stillstands getreten.
