Sinopsis
This comprehensive overview of the first
quarter-century of American environmental sociolog
y introduces readers to the research and
theoretical perspectives in this new field of
study. Formally established in 1976 with the
formation of the American Sociological
Association's Section on Environmental
Sociology, the field emerged in response to
widespread societal recognition of the
significance of environmental problems in the
1970s and has flourished ever since. Focusing on
both built and natural environments, this volume
provides overviews of key topics in both branches
of the field, summarizing and synthesizing
existing research in each area.Although this
volume pays ample attention to theoretical
perspectives in environmental sociology, it also
provides thorough reviews of research on the
central topics in the field. Contributors
introduce and consider the current work
available in such areas as the design of built
environments, hazards and disasters, risks, the
environmental movement, and impact assessment,
among others. This timely and important
collection is a must-read for students and
scholars specializing in environmental
sociology, social ecology, environmental
studies, and urban and regional planning.
