Description
This handbook reviews extant research and offers critical summaries of key topics and issues in the field, enriched by authoritative analyses of specific cases and examples. It displays pluralism across a number of axes: epistemological, theoretical, geographical, cultural, and thematic.
The first part offers historical routes through the international development of the field and explores the epistemological grounds of multiple strands of environmental communication studies.
In aiming to map the field broadly, as well as stimulating new thinking, the second part is organized along three core perspectives: arenas , voice , and place . It comprises chapters on various public spaces that are critical to the symbolic constitution of the environment, and sheds light on a range of aspects and social agents that have received insufficient attention, including research about - and carried out in - non-Western countries.
Crucially, at a time of profound environmental crisis, the final part of this book discusses possibilities and constraints to social change, and the potential contributions of environmental communication research to ways of understanding and responding to the challenge.
