Norton; Robyn Eckersley; Joe Bowersox; J Baird Callicott; Catriona Sandilands; John Barry; Andrew Light; Peter S. Wen Klappentext In Democracy and the Claims of Nature, the leading thinkers in the fields of environmental, political, and social theory come together to discuss the tensions and sympathies of democratic ideals and environmental values. The prominent contributors reflect upon where we stand in our understanding of the relationship between democracy and the claims of nature. Democracy and the Claims of Nature bridges the gap between the often competing ideals of the two fields, leading to a greater understanding of each for the other. Zusammenfassung The essays in this volume provide a multi-disciplinary analysis of the ways in which our loyalties to democracy and the environment confront and mutually reinforce one another in theory and practice.
