GEOG 3.01 Living with Nature: Introduction to Nature-Society Relations

This course introduces key approaches to the geographic study of nature-society relations. It is organized around four topical themes (health, climate, energy, and environmental justice) as well as four analytical approaches (political ecology, coupled human-natural systems, non-Western natures, and the environmental humanities). Applying these frameworks to diverse case studies will help us understand how social processes drive ecological transformations, and how those transformations are experienced and understood by societies in different geographical contexts.
