Abstract
This chapter describes our motivations for assembling this volume, as well as the structure of the sections and key content of each chapter of the work. In this introduction to the volume we highlight the varied author perspectives, disciplinary and interdisciplinary, academic and activist, that illuminate the usefulness of pipeline controversies, and other kinds of energy contestations, in teaching that connects our students with the communities surrounding their colleges. In this chapter, we introduce the means by which this volume considers issues of environmental justice, legitimacy, and inclusion in terms of types of knowledge which count as evidence and in terms of power relations in the struggle over fossil fuel pipelines.
