Contesting “climate solutionism”
Climate change is unequivocally contributing to local, regional, and global hydrosocial change with life-altering impacts. Mitigation activities and funding for adaptation are not prioritized, especially by countries that have contributed the most to climate change. Where implemented actions exist, they are often circumscribed by the practice of “climate solutionism”—a concept we deepen. Solutionism collapses immeasurably complex and multi-sector…
Climate change-related weather emergencies, aging and inequalities among racialized older adults
As global aging accelerates alongside intensifying climate disruptions, older adults face growing exposure to extreme weather events that threaten their health and well-being. Yet, the experiences of racialized older adults, categorized as those who are non-White or non-Indigenous who often inhabit the intersection of social and ecological shaped by social marginalization, economic disadvantage, and other factors remain insufficiently understood.…
When injustice triggers retaliation
Purpose This study aims to examine the relationship between organizational justice and employee retaliation. By incorporating psychological contract violation (PCV) as a mediating variable, this study uncovers the underlying psychological pathways through which perceptions of unfairness lead to employees’ decisions to retaliate. Furthermore, this study examines individual power distance orientation as a moderating factor, offering insights into h…
Does community-based monitoring advance Indigenous self-determination? Inuit-led monitoring and governance in Nunavut and Greenland
Existing literature on Community-Based Monitoring suggests that participation in monitoring can increase the extent to which decision-making is informed by observed environmental trends. Yet, there is an ambivalence within the literature concerning the value for Indigenous peoples. Some scholars maintain that CBM programs replicate and reinforce colonial political inequalities while others suggest that such programs can and do support Indigenous …
They’re Outside of the Process”
Admissions officers practicing holistic admissions judge students’ course taking based on what was available to them, yet how representatives learn about students’ high school context and subsequently evaluate students’ course rigor within it remains underexamined. Using signaling theory and effectively maintaining the inequality framework, we leveraged interview data with college admissions representatives to investigate how they construct their…
Climate-water crises
Declarations of water crises have been ubiquitous in water policy and practice for decades. In the face of unprecedented human-caused climate change, the circulation of water crisis discourses has increased in frequency. How crises are defined and made meaningful, however, is often assumed to be commonly agreed upon. Reviewing scholarship at the intersections of water and climate, we show that crisis discourses are inherently political because th…
From "trust" to "trustworthiness
Assumptions of trust in water systems are widespread in higher-income countries, often linked to expectations of "modern water." The current literature on water and trust also tends to reinforce a technoscientific approach, emphasizing the importance of aligning water user perceptions with expert assessments. Although such approaches can be useful to document instances of distrust, they often fail to explain why patterns differ over time, and acr…
Seeing Water Like a State
Respecting water
Indigenous peoples often view water as a living entity or a relative, to which they have a sacred responsibility. Such a perspective frequently conflicts with settler societies' view of water as a "resource" that can be owned, managed, and exploited. Although rarely articulated explicitly, water conflicts are rooted in ontological differences between Indigenous and settler views of water. Furthermore, the unequal water governance landscape create…
Unpacking social-ecological transformations
Social-ecological systems contribute to environmental change and, in turn, face its corresponding shocks and disturbances. As scholarship on resilience and social-ecological transformations grows, researchers from various disciplines continue to debate how major transitions and environmental change can be anticipated, studied or guided towards just and ethical outcomes. To this end, we apply an interdisciplinary perspective to describing key aspe…
Water justice
This chapter focuses on a wide range of justice concerns related to freshwater. Tracing social and spatial differences, from the neighbourhood to the global scale, and between the global North and South, is one way to investigate water-related inequalities. Water justice considerations for drinking, sanitation, and productive uses must be identified, understood, and assessed in relation to a wide range of social and political factors, including g…
Multiple ontologies of water
We ask what it would mean to take seriously the possibility of multiple water ontologies, and what the implications of this would be for water governance in theory and practice. We contribute to a growing body of literature that is reformulating understanding of human-water relations and refocusing on the fundamental question of what water 'is'. Interrogating the political-ontological 'problem space' of water governance, we explore a series of on…
Indigenous Knowledge of Hydrologic Change in the Yukon River Basin
In the Arctic and Subarctic, the contribution of Indigenous knowledge to understanding environmental change has been established over the last several decades. This paper explores the role of Indigenous knowledge of water in understanding hydrologic change within complex social-ecological systems. Observations of hydrology in the Yukon River Basin, contributed by 20 community experts from Ruby Village, Alaska, in semi-structured interviews, are c…
Indigenous water governance
The Politics of Adaptation
Psychological group memberships as outcomes of resource distributions
We propose that people can and will infer group memberships from resource distributions, and that these distributions have implications for people's understandings of the groups themselves and their own associations with these groups. We derive hypotheses from social identity and self‐categorization theories, and test them in three experiments. In Experiment 1, participants systematically rated specific patterns of group memberships as more likel…
