Environmental Politics in Poland: A Social Movement Between Regime and Opposition

by Barbara Hicks

Overview

The first book to trace the evolution of an independent environmental movement in Eastern Europe in both the concluding phases of communist rule and the contemporary post-communist era. It is a major accomplishment in both its exhaustive empirical detail and in how it weaves the history of the movement into recent theoretical debates, social movements, democratization, and civil society. (Michael Bernhard, Pennsylvania State University)
