The role of media content in the enactment of stable and changing vacation practices
Change in lifeworld practices is an important element in climate change mitigation and green transition. This includes also the resource intensive practices of traveling and going on vacation. Understanding how practice change is instigated, disseminated and consolidated is consequently an important question in environmental sociology. In this article we discuss the role that the content of social and conventional media play in lifeworld practice…
Climate‐Friendly Vacations and Tourism
This article explores the socio‐cultural barriers and drivers shaping transitions toward climate‐friendly vacation practices. It highlights the influence of culturally embedded ideas and imaginaries surrounding holidays, intertwined with structural, cultural, and social constraints. These barriers and drivers are continually constructed and reinforced through various practices and discourses, shaping societal perceptions and behaviors. In additio…
Engaging with nature through the dwelling practices in garden landscapes
Based on an empirical study in Copenhagen Denmark, this article investigates whether and how a more diverse nature can be integrated in the dwelling practices of garden owners and users. Is concern for biodiversity part of the engagements inherent in gardening practices? And are such engagements integrated in the embodied competences of garden owners? Drawing on and discussing the theoretical approaches applied in affordance theory, Tim Ingold’s …
Media’s role in pro-environmental practice changes – proposing an ANT perspective
The content of media texts should be considered as a critical factor in the constitution, maintenance and transition of practices. That is the outset and basic point of this article, which suggests an actor-network theoretical approach in order to provide a better understanding of the role media can play in pro-environmental practice changes. There is an exchange between articulations in media texts and performances of social practice, and the st…
Understanding Controversies in Urban Climate Change Adaptation. A case study of the role of homeowners in the process of climate change adaptation in Copenhagen
This article explores the controversies that exist in urban climate change adaptation and how these controversies influence the role of homeowners in urban adaptation planning. A concrete ‘Sustainable Urban Drainages System’ (SUDS) project in a housing cooperative in Copenhagen has been used as a case study, thereby investigating multiple understandings of urban climate change adaptation. Several different perspectives are identified with regard …
Livsstilsbegrebet – i miljøsociologisk perspektiv
Denne artikel tager livsstilsbegrebet op til diskussion og gør det ud fra et miljøsociologisk perspektiv, men med relevans for sociologien i almindelighed. Livsstilsbegrebet er af stor betydning i miljøsociologien – og i sociologien generelt – fordi studiet af livsstil muliggør en forståelse af samspillet mellem en række forskellige dynamikker der former alle dele af livsførelsen for individet og i en større samfundsmæssig sammenhæng. Der er imid…

Tekst- og diskursanalyse som sociologisk fremgangsmåde
Text and discourse analyses as sociological pratice Text analysis must be regarded as a central component in sociological inquiry. Relations of power and domination and societal processes as such are establi¬shed and maintained through knowled¬¬ge and communication, i.e. through texts. Therefore sociology should be in¬terested in identifying the knowledge and the meanings, i.e. the discourses, that are prevalent in a society, a commu¬nity or vari…
Changing public discourse on the environment
Environmental degradation and unsustainable development were addressed on a global scale at the UN Summits in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 and Johannesburg in 2002. This article presents analyses of Danish television coverage of these two summits and related topics viewing the media stories as exemplary cases of wider public conceptions of the environment. Over a decade rhetoric about the summits and the environment changed, the agenda changed, and key…
Hvad er mediesociologi
What is media sociology? The purpose of this article is to introduce some main themes in media sociology, in particular the question of the various media as particular technological milieu and media as the public. It is possible to analyze media as milieu, that is technologies that not only canalize information, but also, by the manner in which they function, form the social milieu that they are a part of. This is illustrated through analyses of …
