Wealth and the Ecological Transformation

There is a dynamic, reciprocal relationship between prosperity and ecological transformation. A just transition only succeeds when social realities, local contexts and human behavior are taken into account. Rejecting simplistic »rich vs. poor« narratives, the contributors reveal how the social effects of ecological change influence vulnerabilities, agency and participation. Focusing on infrastructure, carbon pricing, inequality, misinformation, ownership, scenario methods, and energy commons, the volume offers evidence-based guidance and discussion for policymakers, administrators, civil society, and academics.
