Neighborhood as refuge: community reconstruction, place remaking, and environmental justice in the city

Environmental justice as studied in a variety of disciplines is most often associated with redressing disproportionate exposure to pollution, contimination, and toxic sites.

In this book, Isabelle Anguelovski takes a broader view of environmental justice, examining wide-ranging comprehensive efforts at neighbourhood environmental revitalization that include parks, urban agriculture, fresh food markets, playgrounds, housing, and waste management.
