Abstract

This volume critically interrogates non-Western frameworks within environmental humanities, seeking to challenge and deconstruct dominant Western paradigms. Through a range of interdisciplinary contributions, the book explores alternative epistemologies, including Indigenous, postcolonial, and regional perspectives from Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Global South. It addresses the intricate relations between humans and the environment, emphasizing localized knowledge systems and ecological philosophies. By engaging with diverse cultural, historical, and geographical contexts, the work aims to decolonize environmental discourse and advance more inclusive, pluralistic theoretical approaches to global ecological challenges.
