We’re all brave pioneers on this road’
Despite significant engagement with new and emerging issues in public health practice, the public health literature has few theoretical explanations for how new practices emerge, take root, and become institutionalized. In this contribution, we utilize Pierre Bourdieu’s sociological concepts of field, habitus and capital, and in-depth interviews with public health practitioners to document and describe the emerging field of public health adaptati…
Media Access and Political Efficacy in the Eco-politics of Climate Change
We use a discourse network analysis approach to answer two questions about national news coverage of climate change policy debate in Canada during the period 2006–2010. First, what is the media visibility of actors relevant to policy development and advocacy on climate change? Second, given the political and economic context of climate policy-making in Canada, does greater or lesser media visibility reflect effectiveness in climate policy advocac…
Cannabis cultivation within a religious context
To understand the relationship between Muslim religious attitudes and the growing/consumption of cannabis, we surveyed 251 residents and conducted interviews in Northern Morocco. The local population is Ghomarian, an ethnic group of Berber heritage that experienced socioeconomic marginalization. Cannabis is grown throughout the region, despite Islamic legal code (shari'a) that makes cannabis, like any substances that alter consciousness, illicit …
Conflicting Climate Change Frames in a Global Field of Media Discourse
Reducing global emissions will require a global cosmopolitan culture built from detailed attention to conflicting national climate change frames (interpretations) in media discourse. The authors analyze the global field of media climate change discourse using 17 diverse cases and 131 frames. They find four main conflicting dimensions of difference: validity of climate science, scale of ecological risk, scale of climate politics, and support for m…
Canadian News Media Coverage of Climate Change
We examine climate change news coverage from 1997 to 2010 in two Canadian national newspapers: the Globe and Mail and the National Post. The following questions guide our analysis: Why did the volume of climate change coverage rise and fall during the period? Focusing on the key period of 2007–2008, what kinds of issue categories, thematic frames, and rhetorical frames dominate the news discourse? Canadian news coverage of climate change is chara…
Calhoun, Craig, Eduardo Mendieta, and Jonathan VanAntwerpen, Habermas and Religion
O n the bus from the downtown hotel to the conference of the Can- adian Sociology Association a few years ago, I began talking with a Dutch sociologist.At some point she commented on the ethnocultural changes in The Netherlands, declaring, "I wish these Muslims would leave their religion at home -it has no place in public."At my surprise, she explained that religion is and should be private because it rests on unarguable principles: only reason w…

Religion and climate change
Although religions are major social actors and institutions with considerable reach, relatively little social science research has focused specifically on the interaction of religious bodies and human‐induced climate change. Most of the current scholarship on the topic has been theological, pastoral, or normative, and specific to particular faiths; the focus of such scholarship is to draw on resources internal to the faith in order to make the ca…

Ulrich Beck, Twenty Observations on a World in Turmoil
B y title, Twenty Observations would seem like casual reflections on contemporary events by an influential academic-pundit.But Ulrich Beck is trying to do more.Most of these essays were published in various European newspapers and magazines.This is only an academic sociology book in that it is written by a well-known sociologist.Nevertheless, we can learn something about public engagement as sociologists.In these essays -especially as they are co…
Making Peace With All Creation
Are we at war with nature? By all appearances, humanity has faced off against the biosphere with violent and destructive consequences, and ecological degradation is accelerating. At the regional sc
Securing 'supportive environments' for health in the face of ecosystem collapse
In this paper, we reflect on and explore what remains to be done to make the concept of supportive environments--one of the Ottawa Charter's five core action areas--a reality in the context of growing uncertainty about the future and accelerated pace of change. We pay particular attention to the physical environment, while underscoring the inextricable links between physical and social environments, and particularly the need to link social and en…

The Environment and a Globalizing Sociology
The challenges for sociology posed by global environmental crises are two-fold. First, the growing prevalence of environmental dilemmas in global society demand that a globalizing sociology also be an environmental sociology. This requires the discipline to refine its ability to integrate environmental influences into its conceptual frameworks on social change. Second, the effectiveness of society’s strategic responses to environmental crises dep…
A Theory of Practice for Social Movements
This article draws on Bourdieu's sociological approach to expand social movement theory, while offering sociologically robust direction for movements themselves. In Bourdieu's theory, practical action is produced by the habitus. Generated in its social field, habitus conveys cultural encoding yet in a nondeterministic manner. In a Bourdieusian approach, environmental social movement organizations become the social space in which a logic of practi…
