Toward Coequality of the Social Sciences in the National Climate Assessment
Integration of the social sciences into climate assessments enhances report content and actionable science. The literature has identified the benefits and challenges in achieving coequal intellectual partnerships between the social and biogeophysical sciences in climate research. Less has been written on how to rectify the issue in the particular institutional context of a climate assessment. This article uses qualitative research methods to anal…
Conceptualizing and Capturing Outcomes of Environmental Cleanup at Contaminated Sites
Our article analyzes interdisciplinary literature within the social sciences on outcomes of environmental cleanups at Superfund, brownfield, and other contaminated sites. By focusing on postremediation sites and outcomes, we expand the understanding of the sociopolitical life of contaminated sites over time. First, we examine the technoscientific practices of how scientists and environmental managers seek to make cleanup outcomes legible and mean…
Institutional insights on integrating social and environmental science for solutions-driven research
Aconcagua
This book presents the history of mountaineering on Mount Aconcagua (9,692 meters above sea level), the highest peak in the Western Hemisphere, as well as a history of the mountain itself. It traces mountaineering routes from Mendoza, Argentina, to Aconcagua’s summit, with analytical stops at the base camps, Inca mummies, and memorials along the way. The book locates these routes within broader trajectories of neocolonial scientific and adventure…
Tourism, Environment, and Development on the Inca Trail
This article shows how tourism has shaped Latin American environments by constructing touristic landscapes, causing environmental impacts, and affecting environmental problem solving. The author utilizes written records and interviews to document the environmental history of the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. The transformation of the Inca Trail from overgrown path to global hiking destination began in the early twentieth century. Foreign and Peruvi…
Hearth and Household Economy in an Andean Village
This study situates fuel collection and hearth activity in a rural village (Machu Picchu Historic Sanctuary, Cusco, Peru) as cultural practices essential to securing household and collective production and reproduction. The physical hearth is spatially fluid, allowing it to serve as material and symbolic center throughout the household's life cycle. All members from children to the elderly participate in fuel collection, providing a new means of …

Conceptualizing and Capturing Outcomes of Environmental Cleanup at Contaminated Sites
Our article analyzes interdisciplinary literature within the social sciences on outcomes of environmental cleanups at Superfund, brownfield, and other contaminated sites. By focusing on postremediation sites and outcomes, we expand the understanding of the sociopolitical life of contaminated sites over time. First, we examine the technoscientific practices of how scientists and environmental managers seek to make cleanup outcomes legible and mean…
