Environmental concern in a Wyoming coal town: contentious environmental problems in rural communities
ABSTRACT Understanding environmental concern in rural resource extraction communities is essential for identifying opportunities for locally relevant pro-environmental action and coalition-building. Interviews with miners and community members in a Wyoming coal community reveal strong stewardship values among other environmental concerns. Mine company discourse, miners’ labor activities, and local perspectives about environmentalists reinforce stewardship values and constrain the types of environmental concern that are deemed legitimate in the community. Attending to such processes of environmental concern formation can help the environmental movement expand its base and can assist resource extraction communities in maintaining environmental and economic stability.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Sociology is dedicated to applying and advancing the sociological imagination in relation to a wide variety of environmental challenges, controversies and issues, at every level from the global to local, from ‘world culture’ to diverse local perspectives. As an international, peer-reviewed scholarly journal, Environmental Sociology aims to stretch the conceptual and theoretical boundaries of both environmental and mainstream sociology, to highlight the relevance of sociological research for environmental policy and management, to disseminate the results of sociological research, and to engage in productive dialogue and debate with other disciplines in the social, natural and ecological sciences. Contributions may utilize a variety of theoretical orientations including, but not restricted to: critical theory, cultural sociology, ecofeminism, ecological modernization, environmental justice, organizational sociology, political ecology, political economy, post-colonial studies, risk theory, social psychology, science and technology studies, globalization, world-systems analysis, and so on. Cross- and transdisciplinary contributions are welcome where they demonstrate a novel attempt to understand social-ecological relationships in a manner that engages with the core concerns of sociology in social relationships, institutions, practices and processes. All methodological approaches in the environmental social sciences – qualitative, quantitative, integrative, spatial, policy analysis, etc. – are welcomed. Environmental Sociology welcomes high-quality submissions from scholars around the world.
