Routledge Sustainable Practices: Social Theory and Climate Change

Climate change stands as one of the most significant challenges facing modern society. While much of the current conversation focuses on individual agency and personal choice, this book explores how the social sciences provide a much broader perspective on how we live. Sustainable Practices: Social Theory and Climate Change offers a deep look at how mitigating and adapting to environmental shifts requires new ways of living. Rather than relying on limited understandings of individual habits, this work utilizes social theories of practice to examine the structures of our world. This volume brings together diverse perspectives from multiple disciplines, including sociology, geography, economics, and philosophy. By combining these different academic viewpoints, the book provides a comprehensive look at how social theory can inform our response to the climate crisis. It is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in the intersection of social science and environmental change.
