Conservation Social Scientists in Transnational Institutions
For decades, social scientists have been advocating for more social science in transnational conservation.

This article analyses the labour of conservation social scientists employed in transna…
Transnational Japan in the Global Environmental Movement
As a site of both immense environmental devastation and remarkable rebounds, Japan presents a curious case. Four of the most debilitating cases of industrial pollution first emerged there, yet today it enforces some of the strictest emissions standards in the world.

In Peru, indigenous peoples point to the unsustainability of extractive industries and other state-sponsored projects in order to reinforce indigenous claims to resources and territories and to confront a development model that favors corporate interests…
