Beschreibung
This book establishes whether contemporary social theory can help us understand the structural origins of environmental degradation and environmental politics.
Rezensionen
Ted Benton, University of Essex
"This book is a most welcome addition to the contemporary discussion of environmental issues in the social sciences. As a critical evaluation and reconstruction of its four chosen theorists, it could hardly be bettered. It is clear, rigorous, intellectually challenging and politically serious ... a fine and lasting achievement."

New Statesman and Society
"Offers a welcome and timely survey of those thinkers - Andre Gorz, Anthony Giddens, Jurgen Habermas, Ulrich Beck - who have tried to move beyond the exploded belief in the "conquest" of nature and unlimited growth."

Times
Literary Supplement
"David Goldblatt has done us the large favour of starting from the other end of the story. Rather than using environmentalism to shore up a set of conclusions arrived at elsewhere, he starts with the two main questions posed by environmentalism - the structural origins of environmental degradation and the conditions under which environmental movements might ameliorate or prevent that degradation - and examines the work of four contemporary social theorists to see what answers they provide. Goldblatt's own analysis is thoughtful, well argued and has a painful honesty to it; even when it appears that conclusions do not please him, he follows them through to the end. In this thoughtful book, David Goldblatt has helped us to move towards some answers."

Environmental Values
"An academically thorough and at the same time readable assessment of relevant writings of Anthony Giddens, Andre Gorz, J%uuml;rgen Habermas and Ulrich Beck. The discussions of individual theorists would work well as stand-alone chapters, and would provide students with very good starting points in each case ... ideal for student reading lists on environment-related social science courses."

International Journal of Environmental Studies
"Highly engaging review of current developments in social theory ... this book is a testimony to the vigour and creativity of the discipline's response to the environmental challenge. His writing is refreshingly clear and points are made cogently and logically."

"The conclusion is the most interesting chapter, because in it Goldblatt brings together his own arguments."

Class
'David Goldblatt's book is a welcome and scholarly contribution to a growing socialist literature in what may broadly be termed political ecology ... Goldblatt's main acheivement ... is to draw together the disparate conceptual apparatus of modern European social theory and then to show how it provides the necessary foundation for a critical political ecology.'

'Social theorists may need to head in such directions given the place that Goldblatt, carefully and convincingly, leads us to.'
