Knowledge integration across the boundaries of social and natural sciences is not widespread, blocked by the specialisation of theories and their competing forms of explanation and interpretation. Chapters in this book describe a new social-ecological theory that connects concepts and theories from both sides to create a new interdisciplinary approach. Inter- and transdisciplinary knowledge synthesis creates possibilities to analyse global environmental problems more systematically by integrating specialized research on environmental problems. The author uses social-ecological theory to analyse and explain problems and processes of global change in modern society such as climate change and adaptation to it, ecosystem change, and transformation of the industrial energy regime, finally offering pathways of transformation to afuture sustainable society. Karl Bruckmeier is Professor in the Department of Sociology, National Research University - Higher School of Economics, Moscow, Russia. Formerly he was Professor in Human Ecology at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. 606 $aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aEcology 606 $aSustainability 606 $aBiotic communities 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aEnvironmental Social Sciences 606 $aEnvironmental Policy 606 $aEnvironmental Sciences 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEcosystems 606 $aPhysical Geography 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aBiotic communities. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 14$aEnvironmental Social Sciences. 615 24$aEnvironmental Policy. 615 24$aEnvironmental Sciences. 615 24$aSustainability. 615 24$aEcosystems. 615 24$aPhysical Geography. 676 $a333.7 700 $aBruckmeier$b Karl$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0276661 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253354303321 996 $aSocial-Ecological Transformation$92525213 997 $aUNINA
