Continuing the debates surrounding her controversial first book, Ain't I A Woman, bell hooks suggests that feminists have not succeeded in creating a mass movement against sexist oppression because the very foundation of women's liberation has, until now, not accounted for the complexity and diversity of female experience.

Climate change and related adaptation strategies have gender-differentiated impacts. This paper reviews how gender is framed in 41 papers on climate change adaptation through an intersectionality lens. The main findings show that while intersectional analysis has demonstrated many advantages for a comprehensive study of gender, it has not yet entered the field of climate change and gender. In climate change studies, gender is mostly handled in a men-versus-women dichotomy and little or no attention has been paid to power and social and political relations. These gaps which are echoed in other domains of development and gender research depict a 'feminization of vulnerability' and reinforce a 'victimization' discourse within climate change studies. We argue that a critical intersectional assessment would contribute to unveil agency and emancipatory pathways in the adaptation process by providing a better understanding of how the differential impacts of climate change shape, and are shaped by, the complex power dynamics of existing social and political relations.

Introduction The motivation for this paper came from multiple conversations between the editors about gender and environment theory and practice. From our own research on the gendered politics that articulate particular spaces, environments, and subjects across scales (Hawkins, forthcoming; Ojeda, 2010), we felt the need to review current and past work in the field, looking for theoretical and methodological clues on how to better understand the relation between gendered subjects and the gendered environments they signify, inhabit, and transform. With this broad question in mind, we did a thorough reading of gender and environment work within geography with the desire to review how current and past work relate to and diverge from one another, and how current work in the field has encompassed theoretical advances in feminist theory, nature ^ society theory, and analyses of the social production of nature. Reviewing a provocative set of work on the topic of gender and environment left us with further questions, including: How have those of us interested in gender ^ environment connections accounted for the role of gender in the uneven access to and control over resources? What are some recent trends and issues with respect to how we understand gender, environment, and the relations between the two? What are the directions in which this work is going, and what are the most urgent challenges it faces? In particular, we felt that there were important questions about the ways in which this loosely defined body of literature has addressed the gender category, its own politics of knowledge production, and the imaginings and possibilities of gender and environment theory and practice. The field of gender and environment studies is inspired by an interest in environmental issues and an understanding that these issues are gendered in complicated and important ways. These gender ^ environment relations have significant symbolic and material consequences in how nature is understood, in how environmental resources and responsibilities are managed and distributed, and in gendered power dynamics that play out in the day-to-day lives of people around the world. At the same time, this relation between gender and environment is twofold: the gendered environments we signify, inhabit, and transform, and the gendered power relations implicated in the complex dynamics of resource access and control, play an important role in processes of subject formation. In other words, processes of differentiation to which gender is central are place bound and, as such, are intricately related with the environmentsö households, regions, habitats, bodies, neighborhoods, etcöbeing produced. Because of the fact that the field addresses these fundamental issues, we see gender and environment theorisations as being at the forefront of issues such as consumption (Hawkins, forthcoming), global change (Seager, 2009), neoliberalization processes (Katz, 1998; 2001), the body (Harcourt, 2009; Langston, 2010), environmental justice (Di Chiro, 2008), population debates (Hartmann, 2001; Hartmann and Hendrixson, 2005), violence and militarization (Kuletz, 2001; Loyd, 2009; Ojeda, 2010), and conservation (Mollett, 2010; Sundberg, 2004) among other areas of study. This makes delving into current understandings of and future trends in the field all the more important. A discussion Environment and Planning D: Society and Space 2011, volume 29, pages 237 ^ 253
