L'Allemagne et la France présentent de profondes différences dans le domaine de l'environnement, lui-même en pleine mutation. L'Allemagne s'y est affirmé leader mondial, surtout dans l'innovation et les écotechnologies, sur fond d'une puissante dynamique collective. L'évolution française est plus incertaine, plus contrainte par ses configurations socio-institutionnels et culturelles. Ces perspectives et ces différences sont ici mises à jour et interrogées.
This book illuminates the importance of threat on the representation of everyday life, from an interdisciplinary perspective. Divided into three parts, the book sets out by addressing the conceptual aspects of threat and by opening views on phenomena and social processes associated with threat. It shows how threat constitutes an analytical category that simultaneously involves social, psychological, religious, historical and political factors, and calls for a sufficiently broad conceptual definition to integrate pluri-disciplinary contributions. The second part focuses on the building of threats, mainly the environmental threats that have reached a tragic dimension today and are a core aspect of world concerns, the contemporary global terrorism, the migrations and the challenges these bring to contemporary societies, as well as the threats associated with the emergence of nationalism and the diverse aspects of excluding the Other. The final part examines the coping strategies, including oblivion, denial and defiance associated with different sources of threats, for instance those arising from epidemic and collective diseases, financial technology, natural disasters and collective traumas.
Sustainable development and environmental improvement are often regarded as intrinsically valuable a priori. As a result, the policies by which these goals are to be attained is often inadequately scrutinised. In this book, ecological economics addresses the institutional and policymaking aspects of environmental problems, thus covering a broad socioeconomic research agenda, in contradistinction to mainstream economic approaches. The approach advocated here is open to differing viewpoints on the same issue, sees conflict resolution as a social process, and accepts the need for research into political-economic issues, according a prominent position to the aims of society itself. An in-depth analysis of the policy process is followed in order to understand the pitfalls and barriers that will confront society on the road to sustainable development. Readership: The broad approach advocated will appeal to all involved in environmental problems - decision makers, NGO members, and academic scholars.
Instigated by technological and political change, Europe's rural areas have undergone profound and all-pervasive restructuring processes. Although the impact of these processes has often been depicted negatively, this is not always the case. Bringing together a range of comparative case studies from France, Finland, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Spain, Sweden, Portugal, the UK and other countries, this book provides a comprehensive and balanced picture of rural change over the past five decades. It explores which aspects of the European countryside have benefited and which have suffered as a consequence of the often contradictory forces of restructuring. The book looks into economic aspects as well as into the social impact of rural change. The final part examines regional issues and illustrates how different rural areas have responded to the transformative pressures.
"Cet ouvrage présente une lecture sociologique de la question environnementale dans une perspective historique éclairant les dynamiques contemporaines. Enjeu de mobilisations et de revendications, la question environnementale a d'abord eu pour objet la remise en cause du mode de développement industriel. Elle est ensuite devenue un puissant vecteur de normalisation sociale, posant aux sociologues la question des relations entre le politique, l'économique et l'idéologique. Elle est donc à ce titre un indicateur de changement social et recouvre un champ foisonnant qui constitue son corpus : analyse des nouvelles pratiques et représentations de la nature, conflits d'usages, place et rôle des scientifiques, nouveaux rapports aux risques, émergence d'un mouvement d'écologie politique, repositionnement du secteur économique et prise en charge par le politique, etc. Cet ouvrage universitaire examine la question environnementale dans sa construction scientifique, économique et politique. À ce titre il peut intéresser aussi bien les étudiants que la communauté des chercheurs. Il offre aussi aux décideurs et aux professionnels de l'environnement un éclairage sociologique sur leur domaine d'intervention."--Page 4 of cover.
