Session Submission Type: Meeting

Abstract

In 2010 ASA Council established a Task Force on Sociology and Global Climate Change, and charged it with applying sociological analyses to the issue of climate change. After careful deliberations, the Task Force decided to publish an edited volume with chapters focusing on key aspects of climate change for which sociological theory and research provide useful insights. All Annual Meeting participants are invited to this special meeting, which will consist of a quick overview by the editors and followed by 5-minute synopses of the 13 chapters, delivered by a co-author of each one.
