Site wind right? Public acceptance and the social negotiation of renewable energy in Spanish landscapes
Despite widespread public support for renewable energy, wind power projects often encounter significant local resistance. This study explores this paradox through an empirical case in Galicia (Spain), a region experiencing a rapid expansion of onshore wind farms. Based on a mixed-methods approach – including surveys (n = 466), semi-structured interviews, and document analysis – our study finds that environmental concerns, landscape transformation…
Slow journalism para explicar la crisis climática
El cambio climático representa una amenaza existencial para la humanidad. Los fenómenos meteorológicos extremos son más recurrentes y causan un impacto mayor sobre las sociedades humanas. Sin embargo, una gran parte de la población no acaba de asimilar la verdadera dimensión de esta crisis porque carece de conocimientos suficientes para entender la naturaleza del problema. Si la comprensión resulta tan limitada se debe a la propia complejidad de …
Política de conservación, gobernanza y representaciones sobre la sostenibilidad. El Parque Natural Los Alcornocales y el Parque Natural del Estrecho como estudio de caso en Andalucía
Los parques naturales se diseñaron para compatibilizar objetivos conservacionistas y de desarrollo local, y se han definido como laboratorios de participación social. Usando técnicas grupales (grupo focales) y participativas (talleres), ofrecemos las percepciones de actores sociales e institucionales de los Parques Naturales del Estrecho y Los Alcornocales (Andalucía) tras varias décadas de políticas de conservación. Mostramos la diversidad de ag…
Radical social innovations and the spatialities of grassroots activism
In this article, by drawing on empirical evidence from twelve case studies from nine countries from across the Global South and North, we ask how radical grassroots social innovations that are part of social movements and struggles can offer pathways for tackling socio-spatial and socio-environmental inequality and for reinventing the commons. We define radical grassroots social innovations as a set of practices initiated by formal or informal co…
Campus greening from social sciences
Purpose This paper aims to show how the Green Campus Program has been implemented at the Faculty of Sociology of the University of A Coruña (Spain). It describes the criteria used to create teaching sustainability actions related to community engagement to introduce education for sustainable development into college curricula. Design/methodology/approach Drawing on a human-centered design model approach, as well as on transformative teaching theo…
Antropología y cambio climático
El cambio climático se ha convertido en una de las principales problemáticas a la que nos enfrentamos hoy y el eje sobre el que giran nuevas políticas, valores, intereses, horizontes y ansiedades. Aunque los estudios antropológicos del cambio climático se encuentran aún en ciernes, están generando una serie de replanteamientos y abriendo un conjunto de líneas de estudio que no solo nos permiten un conocimiento más complejo, situado y simétrico so…
Beyond the green panopticon
This introduction to the special collection explores how a revised or expanded understanding of 'environmentality' can further our analysis of the evermore complex terrain of environmental politics today. We offer an outline of the literature from which the discussion emerges and how the subsequent articles both engage with and depart from it. We describe the origin of the 'green governmentality' discussion following the rise of global sustainabl…

Practising Nature
The literature on environmentality analyses how local people living in natural protected areas might come to care about, act in relation to, and think of their own actions in terms of environmental protection by becoming actively involved in conservation government and management. In this paper we contribute to a clearer, broader, and more nuanced understanding of the connection between different regulatory regimes and the formation of environmen…
Repensando las prácticas académicas
ParticiPat es un proyecto de investigación del Plan Nacional que tiene como objetivo analizar la participación y sus instrumentalizaciones en nueve estudios de caso sobre procesos de patrimonialización. A la hora de abordar el proyecto, quisimos cuestionar las jerarquías y lógicas raramente colaborativas que rodean la producción de conocimiento en la antropología. Para ello decidimos seguir los principios de la investigación acción participativa …
Towards an indicator system to assess equitable management in protected areas
The end of the idyll? Post-crisis conservation and amenity migration in natural protected areas
Risky policies
In 2017, the idea that floods are exceptional and temporary episodes is a conviction increasingly contradicted by their growing incidence and severity across the globe. Floods have lasting consequences for affected populations and such effects can be wide-ranging depending on local context. However, prevailing misconceptions remain concerning the nature and effect of floods on populations. The advent of risk-based approaches is arguably responsib…
Heritage and participatory governance
In the heritage field, institutions tend to see social participation as a synonym for good governance practice. This extends to other areas such as the environment, humanitarian aid, and sustainable development. In this article, the authors analyze the use of participatory models in the management of heritage through the study of three heritage sites in Spain: the prehistoric paintings in Altamira, the Mosque‐Cathedral in Córdoba, and the Cabo de…
Protected Areas, Conservation Stakeholders and the ‘Naturalisation’ of Southern Europe
The critical analysis of conservation conflicts in Protected Areas (PAs) raises interesting questions about the redefinition of human-environment relations in the current ecological crisis. In recent years these debates have unveiled that, in the attempt to define the proper place of humans in nature, PAs have embodied modern dualistic worldviews, which understand nature as a realm different from society, culture and civilisation. This paper sugg…
A natural life
The worldwide expansion of nature conservation initiatives has attracted a great deal of attention among political ecologists. Concerned about the effects on people and the environment, critical scholars have attempted to identify the drivers of conservation, and how power operates. Conservation policies, practices and conflicts have generated a large literature about the role of states, expert bureaucracies, private corporations, NGOs and techno…

Naturalezas discursivas en espacios protegidos
Las políticas de protección ambiental, en espacios protegidos, son habitualmente contestadas por las poblaciones locales. El conflicto entre los diferentes agentes que participan en estos procesos supone la activación de discursos de legitimación en los que la categoría “naturaleza” juega un papel central. En este artículo nos aproximaremos no sólo a la construcción discursiva de las naturalezas activadas por los diferentes agentes que participan…
Discursive natures in protected areas
Local populations living in conservation-targeted areas often contest the environmental policies affecting them. This triggers conflicts between different stakeholders, who tend to activate discourses in which the category of "nature" becomes instrumental in legitimizing their dissimilar position toward conservation policies. This paper examines not only these different discursive constructions of nature, but also the connections between them and…
Naturalizing the Environment
Following the closure of the mines and the crisis in agriculture, an alternative process of cultural and natural `heritagization' has been taking place in certain areas of Andalusia with a marked tourist focus. Productive spaces have been transformed into post-mining and post-agrarian landscapes. The aim of this article is to analyse representations and perceptions of surroundings in these contexts through the discourse of those who have experien…
