“Few works of social science prove enduring, much less prophetic. Allan Schnaiberg’s environmental sociology, first introduced in the 1980s, is here refashioned for the challenges of twenty-first-century globalization. Schnaiberg and his coauthors reach across the generations with profound insight, demonstrated prescience, and a new vision of social justice.” —John Walton, Distinguished Research Professor, University of California “The book represents an essential point of departure for understanding and addressing the challenges of controlling global environmental change in the twenty-first-century.” —Thomas K. Rudel, Rutgers University “Lays out a promising research agenda on the new politics of the environment for critical social scientists.” —Maria Kousis, University of Crete
