Exploring environmental justice in France: evidence, movements, and ideas

This article explores the distinctiveness of French and francophone approaches 
to environmental justice. While off to a slow start, environmental justice 
research has received increased attention in France in the last 15 years. But 
there has been little to no attention to the French debates and movements in 
the English-language academic literature, with both bodies of knowledge largely 
evolving in parallel, conceptually and politically. This article attends to 
this gap by first taking stock of the empirical evidence of environmental 
injustices and inequalities in France. We then introduce some of the 
theoretical origins and discuss some of the main insights from the French 
literature in light of contemporary environmental justice scholarship. In so 
doing, our aim with this paper is to contribute to current scholarly efforts on 
diversifying the meanings and understandings of environmental justice in 
different academic and political contexts.
