The future has become a key focus in the social sciences, both as a research topic and as a space for political imagination and resistance. Since the climate crisis has moved into public consciousness, with movements like Fridays for Future and Extinction Rebellion, questions about what a climate-just future looks like - and how it can be achieved - have gained urgency.
This book explores how different collective actors imagine and shape the future in the context of climate justice. It examines tensions between radical transformation, post-growth, and green modernization, as well as the contrasting ecological visions of left-wing and right-wing activism. Future imaginaries are presented not only as visions, but also as tools for action - shaping resistance, inspiring self-organization, and influencing strategies for sustainable change.
Drawing on examples from grassroots climate movements, guerrilla gardening, ecovillages, and other forms of collective action, this volume offers one of the first comprehensive overviews of how imagined futures can guide political practice and societal transformation.
