Intertwining of diverse minds in(to) political ecology : proceedings from the Summer School of Political Ecology 2018

Lukšič, Andrej (urednik), Tkalec, Tomislav (urednik)

The International Summer School of Political Ecology is a response to a recognized lack of holistic and in-depth understanding of environmental issues in the Slovenian intellectual space. This applies particularly to the social sciences and humanities, which currently offer a limited range of elective courses at both undergraduate and graduate levels. The existing divide between the environmental questions we pose and the need to both rethink and find answers to them is evident, while the solutions presented today are in need of thorough reflection. This book presents the proceedings from the Summer School of Political Ecology 2018. The collected texts, written by some of our distinguished guests and speakers and originally published in different editions, will help readers create a mental framework for a deeper understanding of the multilayered nature of global environmental and ecological issues. In this manner, many questions of political ecology can be answered in the light of a more critical and relational understanding of the proposed solutions. Political ecology is distinguished from political environmental sciences in such a manner that not only posits “the environment” as the subject of investigation, but also places and contextualizes environmental issues in the asymmetrical relations of social and political power. Due to their differing notions and assumptions regarding technology, economy, democracy, nature, the environment, etc., environmental discourses are a source of many (mis)understandings among societal actors. This often leads to mutually conflicting proposals for solutions and consequently political struggle over and among them. The overarching aim of the school is to establish a common understanding of different perspectives concerning environmental and ecological issues (i.e., environmental discourses) and thus to enable a more comprehensive and nuanced mental framework to emerge.
