Why sustainability matters. Some sociological observations drawn from the findings of Peace Research
Although classical sociology has long neglected the role of environmental factors in the determination and interpretation of social facts, considering the environment as an external variable that is complementary or even irrelevant to the social fact (Durkheim, 1982), in recent years the biological and physiological dimensions began to recover the space that had long been denied to them. Peace studies and sustainablility studies have played an important role on it.
