After defining key terms, it reviews the history of environmental determinism’s rise and fall within geography in the early twentieth century. It discusses the key reasons for the doctrine’s rejection and presents alternative, non-deterministic frameworks developed within geography for analyzing the roles played by the environment in human affairs. The authors examine the rise in recent decades of neo-deterministic approaches to such issues as the demarcation of regions, the causes of civilizational collapse in prehistory, today’s globally uneven patterns of human well-being, and the consequences of human-induced climate change. In each case, the authors draw on the insights and approaches of geography, the academic discipline most conversant with the interactions of society and environment, to challenge the widespread acceptance that such approaches have won. The book will appeal to those working on human-environmental research, international development and global policy initiatives.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | | 關鍵詞 | Environmental Nihilism; agriculture; human health; natural resources; climate; Anthropocene; Environmental | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-54232-4 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-85347-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-54232-4 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2017 |
