Description

The qualitative, critical perspective of sociology and allied disciplines challenges the technocentric ''managerialism'' which dominates environmental policy, its discourse and its impact. The authors explore the relationship between social theory and sustainability in an attempt to transend technical rhetoric and embrace a broader understanding of ''nature''.
