Nevertheless, Climate Obstruction is an eyeopening, thought-provoking contribution and a must-read for everybody who despairs of understanding why late modern societies are sliding into climate catastrophe with their eyes wide open, or – to be precise – are already in the midst of it.

management, and environmental activism’ (p. 17). While one may be sympathetic to such an effort, it is a risky enterprise in a world where attacking science is a part of current political practice, a challenge she duly acknowledges. Science, she says, must never be reduced to a matter of identity politics. Decolonising science is not about ‘offering a new kingdom of thought to replace the disciplines’ (p. 178), but rather to transform our thinking about what it is to know. Her insights are an inspiring contribution to the efforts to ‘think athwart’ and the book deserves to be read with attention and care.

hurdles to climate action deserve a deeper discussion. Culture and civil society are critical arenas for cementing as well as challenging hegemony in the Gramscian framework. The book discusses climate representations in novels, films and television, but critiques them as ‘climate spectacle’ that reinforces a passive politics of suffering and pity, representing a form of ‘disaster capitalism’ that paradoxically sustains fossil fuel hegemony. The book claims that apocalyptic portrayals provide a ‘fanciful diversion that fails to seriously challenge or even acknowledge the cataclysmic inevitability of our current political and economic order’ (p.143). The authors also perhaps indulge in over-optimism when they mention indigenous artifacts on remote islands as subversive texts. A more subtle discussion of the cultural politics of climate representations might suggest how they also raise awareness and perhaps stimulate action. The final chapters of the book describe the emergence of new forms of activism and potential futures, leaning on Gramsci’s analysis of political crises. Political ecologists have also argued that our experiences of nature could facilitate more fundamental change, leveraging Gramsci’s insight that human consciousness and ‘common sense’ are forged through interactions with the everyday material and natural worlds. As we endure increasing climate stresses, both directly and through the media, this book provides the intellectual guidance to help us make sense of the wider system in which climate risks are manifesting; seeing the crisis clearly, ‘without illusions but without becoming disillusioned’, in Gramsci’s words, could drive the counter-hegemonic organizing needed to put humanity on a more hopeful trajectory.

which, I believe, revolve around answering the question: how have subnational governments responded to the fracking boom and subsequent bust. The answers are found in an engaging set of comparative case studies that cover three major extractive regions/states: Marcellus, Bakken, and fields in Wyoming. The studies reveal that local and state governments have embraced numerous responses and have created and/or revisited a myriad of roles for themselves including capacity building, consensus building, shared and collaborative governance, and planning and economic solutions. Policymakers have also updated relevant institutions and policies so that communities are better positioned to adequately respond to the novel challenges of the fracking boom. In short, the book embraces the complexity of the shale boom and offers an engaging account of how governance systems and planning have adapted to new challenges grounded in the local experience.
