This collection provides a powerful and sophisticated analysis of how environmental movements influence politics in Asia, and how politics influences movements." —John S. Dryzek, Centenary Professor, University of Canberra

"This important book reflects the challenges and questions currently foremost in scholars', activists' and policy-makers' minds—the Anthropocene, environmental justice, China's Belt and Road Initiative, and post-politics—all addressed through the lens of environmental movements in Asia."—Jonathan Rigg, Professor at the School of Geographical Sciences, University of Bristol

"This book shows convincingly that the concept of Anthropocene is as relevant in Asia as anywhere." —Philip Hirsch, Emeritus Professor of Human Geography, University of Sydney
