Atlases and Graphic Analyses

In this section, we list online resources that represent quantitative and qualitative data about GEJ graphically. Again, this list will continue to be expanded. If you have a suggestion or two, please head over to the ‘Contribute’ tab.

EJ Atlas


The environmental justice atlas has documented over 3,000 social environmental conflicts around the world. It is a collection of stories of communities struggling for environmental justice. EJAtlas is housed at ICTA-UAB and led by Leah Temper and Joan Martinez Alier. It is coordinated by Daniela Del Bene at the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology (ICTA) at the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona.

feral Atlas

Feral Atlas proposes that following the feral effects of imperial and industrial infrastructure is an approach that might lead to new kinds of research across the debilitating gap between the human and natural sciences. Because of their unfamiliarity with the humanities and social sciences, natural scientists too often lump anthropogenic disturbances into a single category without considering the varied effects of practices and histories. Meanwhile, humanists and social scientists often know so little about nonhumans that they do not bring their particular features into social analysis. Feral Atlas offers an alternative to such mutual disregard. Here are projects aplenty that require attention to both humans and nonhumans. In these terrible times, there is still important work for scholars. 

Feral Atlas is inspired by the new biologies in which ecology, evolution, and development are made together—allowing a renewal of attention to biological histories of cross-species interactions.
