Sociology Paper – Environmental Movements

Within Environmental Sociology, there is a theoretical perspective called Reflexive Modernisation, which can be summarised with the following claim: “With a better understanding of how humans and nature interact and a willingness to learn from past mistakes and misunderstandings, we can prevent such (environmental) problems from occurring again and build a more socially and environmentally sustainable future.” Using the readings attached and two sources from outside, discuss why you disagree or agree with this claim. One of the outside sources must be an academic journal article, while the other can be a journal article, blog post, etc. as long as it is from a reputable source. The readings should be used to support your argument, so make sure to cite your readings in the text (in addition to a works cited page at the end in MLA format. This assignment should be around 5-7 pages in length.

 

To aid you in thinking about how to critique the above quote, consider the following:

 

1.What assumptions are being made about human nature?

 

2.How are cultural issues being addressed?

 

3.What kind of time frame are we talking about, in terms of “learning from our mistakes” and preventing future occurrences?

 

4.How does this relate to material we’ve discusses in class?

 

All of the above questions should be addressed in your paper
