- W236891119 abstract "Review: Environmentalism Unbound: Exploring New Pathways for Change By Robert Gottlieb Reviewed by On-Kwok Lai Kwansei Gakuin University, Japan Robert Gottlieb. Environmentalism Unbound: Exploring New Pathways for Change. Cambridge, MA: MIT Press. 2001. 396 pp. ISBN 0-262-07210-6 (cloth). US$32.95 Interest in the social shaping of the environment and societal response to green ideas has grown considerably not only among scholars but also among environmentalists and policy-makers. This insightful and stimulating book mostly satisfies the growing demand; it has good case illustrations on the synergy, vis-a-vis the decoupling, of the informed social change and environmentalism. The book is divided into seven chapters: two are discursive and analytical (chapters 1 and 7), two relate to politics/policy on the cleaner production initiatives and the politics of food, respectively (chapters 2 and 6), and three are empirical case studies on the concerted effort for socio-environmental improvements in greener dry cleaning industry, the chemical exposure of janitors, and the restructuring of the insecure food system respectively (chapters 3, 4, and 5). In the introductory chapter, Gottlieb rightly notes that, in the last three decades of the 20th century, environmental discourse was shaped by different forms of green activism with an assumption of the long-standing separation of the social from the ecological (p. 5) and therefore not productive in terms of the harmonization of the relationship between nature and society. As argued by the author, the divided and fragmented approaches for environmental justice and prevention are fruitless in enhancing environmental quality. In contrast, the possibility for a concerted socio-environmental initiative is explored in the remaining chapters, for example, the emergence of a cleaner production regime that requires a more holistic green approach for industrial development (chapter 2). The next three detailed informational chapters provide good examples for making the seemingly conflicting interests converge: the search for the community's common, worker participation for environmental change in the Santa Monica area, and food insecurity problems at the community scale. Of all three empirical case studies, I like the study on the small and medium enterprise-based dry cleaning for clothes, because it highlights the complexity of environmental issues in a community setting where the communicative dynamics and the greening of production are fluidly interacting in production-cum-consumption system. …" @default.
