The Making of Green Knowledge: Environmental Politics and Cultural Transformation
The Making of Green Knowledge: Environmental Politics and Cultural Transformation
Andrew Jamison Cambridge University PressNew YorkJanuary 2002
Keywords: Environment, Politics, Strategy, Green issues
Jamison provides a wide-ranging introduction to the politics of the environment and the development of environmental knowledge. Focusing in particular on the quest in recent years for more sustainable forms of socio-economic development, he attempts to place environmental politics within a broad historical perspective and examines the different political strategies and cultural practices that have emerged. He also investigates how concern and responsibility for the environment have shifted from being the preserve of specific sections of society to those of society as a whole, a greening process which has manifested itself through a variety of policies and practical activities.
