In Western countries, the linkages and diffusion processes between such actors often drive environmental movements. Through a study of Chinese anti-incineration contention, *Chinese Environmental Contention: Linking Up against Waste Incineration* investigates how the different contentious actors in China's green sphere link up, and what this means for environmental contention. It addresses questions such as: What lies behind the notable increase of environmental protests in China? And what are the potentials for the emergence of an environmental movement? The book shows that a complex network of ties has emerged in China's environmental realm under Hu Jintao. Affected communities across the country have connected with each other and with national-level environmentalists, experts and lawyers. Such networked contention fosters both local campaigns and national-level policy advocacy. Beyond China, the detailed case studies shed light on the dynamics behind the diffusion of contention under restrictive political conditions. 410 0$aChina's environment and welfare. 606 $aGreen movement$zChina 606 $aIncineration$zChina 606 $aEnvironmentalism$zChina 607 $aChina$xEnvironmental conditions 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aChina. 610 $adiffusion of contention. 610 $aenvironmental activism. 610 $asocial movements. 610 $awaste incineration Tags website: Asian Studies Anthropology, Environmental Studies, C. 615 0$aGreen movement 615 0$aIncineration 615 0$aEnvironmentalism 676 $a333.72/0951 700 $aBondes$b Maria$0954522 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996433049103316 996 $aChinese Environmental Contention$92158967 997 $aUNISA
