Introduction: Towards Critical Environmental Security; M.Schnurr & L.Swatuk -- What Are We Really Looking For? From Eco-violence to Environmental Injustice; P.Stoett -- Climatic Security and the Tipping Point Conception of the Earth System; C.Russill -- Insecurities of Non-Dominance: Re-Theorizing Human Security and Environmental Change in Developed States; W.Greaves -- Water and Security in Africa: State-Centric Narratives, Human Insecurities; L.Swatuk -- Avoiding the Resource Curse in Ghana: Assessing the Options; P.Arthur -- Sexual Violence, Coltan and the Democratic Republic of Congo; S.Whitman -- 'The Elephant in the Room?' Peak Oil on the Security Agenda; S.Mulligan -- Dirty Security? Tar Sands, Energy Security and Environmental Violence; P.Le Billon & A.Carter -- Loud Bangs and Quiet Canadians: An analysis of oil patch sabotage in British Columbia, Canada; C.Arsenault -- Bodies on the Line: The In/Security of Everyday Life in Aamjiwnaang; S.Wiebe -- Afterward: Ecoviolence, Security, Geopolitics; S.Dalby -- --.

The authors challenge prevailing claims about environmental security by reorienting our understanding of the relationship between natural resources and political violence towards one focused on environmental insecurity. This critical environmental security approach begins with analytical questions that are often left out of studies premised on maintaining conditions of security. Whose security is being secured? Who defines conditions of security? How do changing degrees of control and access over the environment contribute to insecurity? The issue of how security reflects broader patterns of political struggle and social control are underscored through empirically grounded, context-specific studies. The contributors encourage new ways of thinking about environmental security by privileging alternative conceptions and understandings that focus on rights, justice and access. They provide the first steps toward articulating a critical analysis of environmental security that dislodges the state as the preferred level of analysis and questions key assumptions that underlie much of the existing literature.
