The papers assembled in this volume should enable readers to understand what too many people today insistently misperceive. Environmental protection is not just a ?special interest?. It is an essential task for everyone. This book brings together texts by social scientists from the United States, France and Spain. Their common frame of reference is the dialectic between experts and activists in socio-environmental movements, as well as the concern about changes, both cognitive and political, arising in that context.
Els treballs reunits en aquest volum permetran comprendre als lectors el que no es percep correctament avui en dia: la protecció mediambiental no solament és un «interès especial», sinó que constitueix una tasca essencial per a tots. Aquest llibre recull textos de científics socials dels Estats Units, França i Espanya, el marc comú de referència dels quals és la dialèctica entre experts i activistes dels moviments soci-mediambientals, així com la preocupació sobre els canvis cognitius i polítics que sorgeixen en aquest context.
