ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the tactics and strategies employed by environmental activists to resist and respond to instances of state-corporate activity associated with environmental harm. There is frequently a close nexus between the state and corporations when it comes to environmentally harmful practices, and elements of denial and facilitation on the part of the state are vital to the pursuance of such activities. Resistance to such harms takes a number of forms, ranging from civil disobedience to appeals for international support and condemnation via the media. Conversely, state responses to environmental activism may include litigation, criminalization, control over information and the use of counter-terrorism powers.
