Call for Papers – Just transitions and rural environmental justice in Europe

Across disciplines, research into the impact of climate and environmental 
policies is highlighting the uneven distribution of the environmental effort 
(Deldrève et al. 2021, Peñasco et al. 2021). While North/South inequalities 
have legitimately dominated climate justice literature (eg. Sultana, 2022), 
this panel proposes to explore the issues of justice and equity posed by 
environmental action within European countries, with a focus on rural 
populations.

Despite the central place of rural spaces in green transition efforts 
(afforestation, rewilding, landscape restoration, transition to organic 
farming, renewable energy development, etc), they are mostly overlooked by 
“Just Transition” policies (and literature). Yet,  in view of the 
land-intensive needs of green capitalism and of the greenhouse gas reduction 
targets imposed on land-based sectors (Dooley et al. 2018), scholars have 
warned of the disproportionate burden that may be borne by rural populations in 
the race to net zero (Borras and Franco 2018). Whilst rural areas are already 
amongst the most vulnerable to environmental degradation (Austin et al. 2020, 
Dasgupta et al. 2014), spatial characteristics of rural life, such as the 
distance to urban and service centers, reinforce the unequal distributional 
impact of climate policy measures such as carbon taxes (Burke 2020).

In a context where feelings of “left-behindness” (Rodriguez-Pose 2017) are 
instrumentalised by authoritarian, anti-green parties, a better recognition of 
the complexity of rural subjectivities and lived experiences of green 
transitions is key to advancing plural, just and sustainable futures (Walker et 
al 2018).  Environmental economists who have looked at peoples’ perceptions of 
climate measures along an urban/rural gradient, have established a higher 
scepticism of rural citizens to climate policies (Mittenzwei et al. 2023, Ewald 
et al. 2021, Bonnie et al. 2020). Recent environmental justice research into 
rural landscape transformations have, for their part, stressed the degree of 
contention that characterise justice claims within unequal, power-laden rural 
populations (Brown et al forthcoming).

In this panel, we are interested in exploring the articulations between 
rurality and environmental justice in the context of ecological transitions in 
Europe. When the rural does feature in environmental justice literature, it 
predominantly does so as a contextual variable, as opposed to an ideology and 
materiality that may inform environmental justice claims, narratives and 
struggles (Ashwood and Tarrow 2016, Pellow 
2016)[1]<https://politicalecologynetwork.wordpress.com/?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=3771cd24aa1c7c7123133c435f427add167cf4802cd0393afa916cceac72f601&blog_id=94397648&post_id=6531&user_id=113263737&subs_id=141900548&signature=62e30d89ab8692f4383aa355e3cfa371&email_name=new-post&user_email=brendan.cools...@uclouvain.be&encoded_url=aHR0cDovL3BvbGl0aWNhbGVjb2xvZ3luZXR3b3JrLm9yZy8yMDIzLzExLzI4L3BvbGxlbjI0LWNhbGwtZm9yLXBhcGVycy0yLyNfZnRuMQ=>.
  To address this gap and explore issues of “rural environmental justice”, we 
invite contributions that address the following questions: Are there “rural 
justice” claims, narratives and conflicts emerging in response to climate 
mitigation and conservation agendas? To what extent are these embedded within 
older environmental justice struggles related to rural areas’ disproportionate 
exposure to environmental harms? What are these claims and conflicts? How are 
they constructed? What dimensions of rurality and injustice do they stress? Who 
promotes them? Are they voiced and heard in decision-making circles?

The panel will be hosted in Lund but could host remote presentations. If 
interested, please submit your proposal (title, maximum 250 words abstract, 
authors’ names and institutional affiliation) by 10 December 2023 to 
mathilde.gingem...@univ-catholille.fr<https://politicalecologynetwork.wordpress.com/?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=aebadbfd83405639d8b886e7b3acbfbcbb9a744083a0c9db5b37a8b4674a1496&blog_id=94397648&post_id=6531&user_id=113263737&subs_id=141900548&signature=6fae1dba6ce7c86d5cd295fb084f5e7a&email_name=new-post&user_email=brendan.cools...@uclouvain.be&encoded_url=bWFpbHRvOm1hdGhpbGRlLmdpbmdlbWJyZUB1bml2LWNhdGhvbGlsbGUuZnI>and
 to brendan.cools...@uclouvain.be<mailto:brendan.cools...@uclouvain.be>.

proposal will be submitted to the POLLEN secretariat  by 15 December 2023.
