This session will look into recent developments and emerging research topics in environmental sociology, both theoretically and empirically. The emphasis of this session will be on papers that deal with multi-level environmental governance, environmental social movements and environmental inequalities; that challenge us to think in new ways about the objects of environmental sociological inquiry and the conceptual tools; and that stimulates us to new subjects and partners in our sociological endeavor.
