<br/><br/> Examining the case of the Ogoni struggle against the Shell oil company, Agbonifo argues for a decolonization of the environment and to see it from the perspective of local communities. Exploring the material, symbolic, provincial and nationalist dimensions of Ogoni motivation, this book is the first serious attempt to discuss these issues.
