Envisioning a Sustainable Society
Learning Our Way Out
AvLester W. Milbrath
Häftad, Engelska, 1989

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The evidence is increasingly persuasive. We are changing the way our planet's physical systems work-irrevocably. These changes are global and interconnected and unavoidable. They are upon us already, making it virtually impossible for any modern society to continue its present trajectory of growth.This book provides a penetrating analysis of how we have come to this point, of why science and technology will fail to solve these problems, and of how we as a society must change in order to avoid ecological catastrophe. The scope is broad, the urgency of the message is impossible to ignore.
Learning to Think Environmentally
While There Is Still Time
AvLester W. Milbrath
Häftad, Engelska, 1996
324 kr
Tillfälligt slut
The survival of planet Earth's nourishing life systems ultimately depends on how we humans think about them. Unfortunately, our culture's assumptions about the way the world works ignore recent scientific understanding of life systems. This book explains the interdependency and delicate balance of biological, geological, and chemical systems as environmental scientists now understand them. It communicates a new way of thinking.Written in everyday language as a conversation between two neighbors, Learning to Think Environmentally is illustrated with cartoons by Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Tom Toles. It demonstrates that learning the basic principles of environmental thinking is essential to our social, physical, economic, and spiritual well-being. This new way of thinking is urgently needed in our public discourse if we are to take a sustainable pathway to the future.
Political Participation
How and Why Do People Get Involved in Politics
AvLester W. Milbrath,M. L. Goel
Häftad, Engelska, 1982
334 kr
Tillfälligt slut
Originally published in 1965 by Rand McNally College Publishing Company, this volume serves as a compilation of propositions on political participation with supporting discussions, incorporating cross-national research from such countries as Bangladesh, Israel, Malaysia, Nigeria, and Latin America. The authors have also included studies related to the operational definition of political participation, disclosing "modes" of democratic participation: voting, campaign activity, community participation, and particularized contacting.
Environmentalists
Vanguard for a New Society
AvLester W. Milbrath
Häftad, Engelska, 1985
382 kr
Tillfälligt slut
In a groundbreaking study, Lester Milbrath argues the need for a deep change in our belief structure. Environmentalists: Vanguard for a New Society describes a revolution in process. Basing his work on the views of modern environmentalists, Milbrath delineates a new social paradigm-a new understanding and revised values-to show how the world functions in a way different from what our institutions and culture presuppose. It is a book about our civilization, the human condition, and the quality of life.Many of the ideas and much of the evidence in this volume are derived from a three-nation study of environmental beliefs and values. Teams of scholars in England, Germany, and the United States distributed questionnaires to the general public, and to public officials, business and labor leaders, and environmentalists. The answers to these questions are tabulated and the inferences are drawn in this timely study, which is certain to provoke controversy and a reconsideration of basic beliefs.
