Moreover, the thoughts of these experts tend to be based largely in just one of three competing streams of political thought: the left, the center, or the right. Drawing on social theory, the author explains the philosophical origins of this tendency to rely on just one of three traditions, and why this poses a serious obstacle to conceptualizing the cause, nature, and resolution of environmental problems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47590349930647,"sku":"9780742519701","price":6371.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780742519701.webp?v=1774969993","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/ideology-social-theory-and-the-environment-9780742519701","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
