Recent urban political ecology (UPE) literature on urban environmentality, drawing on Foucauldian power analytics, sheds important light on how powers in non-coercive, non-sovereign, and diffused forms emerge and produce docile environmental subjects. Meanwhile, much literature on urban environmental politics in the Global South works with an environmental governance approach, focusing on the role of sovereign power in governing urban socio-ecological changes. This paper collapses the distinction between sovereign and non-sovereign forms of governance by engaging with the multiple environmentalities thesis. This theoretical perspective is illustrated through a case study of a highly polluted global e-waste processing hub, namely Guiyu Town, Guangdong Province, China. In all, this study not only highlights the relevance of the multiple environmentalities paradigm to UPE but also paves a way towards developing situated theories and empirics amidst environmental politics in the urban South.
