Middle Class Radicalism & Environmentalism
What Kind of environmentalist are you?
http://thegreenists.com/its-complicated/what-kind-of-environmentalist-are-you/7562
Questions
Are those who join environmental associations particularly aware of the problems?
Is it just about awareness? Are those who are more aware of environmental problems more likely to participate in environmental organizations?
What is the difference between environmentalists and non-environmentalists?
Is it just about awareness? Are those who are more aware of environmental problems more likely to participate in environmental organizations?
3
Research
Questionnaire distributed to 3 groups.
1) Environmentalists 2)Industrialists (Business & Engineering 3) General Public
On some items, environmentalists and general public both agreed on damage to environment (Environmentalists agreement was stronger)
Awareness of environmental dangers can only account in part for membership in environmental groups
How do we then
explain participation in
Environmental groups?
Need to examine beliefs about environment in the context of wider systems of belief & action (We see bigger difference between environmentalists and others)
Environmentalists see environmental dangers to be much more serious.
Environmentalists: More likely to lack confidence in and even show hostility toward science and technology
Environmentalists: More opposed to institutions of industrial society
Belief Systems (Environmentalists)
Low support for material values (Maintaining high rate of economic growth, maintaining stable economy)
High support for post-material values (Progressing toward less impersonal, more humane society; Progressing toward a society where ideas are more important than money)
Environmentalists have a different worldview, meaning system, and value system than non-environmentalists.
Environmentalists Vs. General Public
What differentiates environmentalists from general public is not awareness of environmental dangers but use to which they put their environmental beliefs.
Universal trump cards: Time, money, God, Nature
Laws of nature are used to sanction moral codes (Hurricane Katrina happened b/c of abortion)
Environment is trump card used by environmentalists
Those on Left: Less confidence in science, higher scores on anti-industrial society scale, higher post-material scores, more opposed to economic individualism, more likely to rate environmental dangers as more serious.
Environmental Movement
Environmental movement: Vehicle for harnessing beliefs about environmental dangers to support attack on central values and beliefs of industrial capitalism -- the hegemony of economic goals and values. (Define good citizenship through consumerism)
In other words, Environmental movement is a way of acting out beliefs. Belief is that the world and society is not just about money, individualism, etc. A belief system that feels the environment is in seri ...
Social movements openstax
Social movements aim to work toward a common social goal of creating change. They can occur at local, state, national, and global levels. Sociologists identify different types of social movements based on the level of change sought, from reform to revolutionary. Social movements also typically progress through stages from preliminary awareness to institutionalization or decline. Recent technological advances have transformed how social movements organize through social media, allowing rapid awareness and organizing across large networks. However, critics argue social media only increases superficial participation rather than deeper engagement. Theories seek to explain success of social movements through concepts like resource mobilization, framing of issues, and alignment of different movement goals.
