Climate crisis needs justice and democracy in the lead, says new professor David Schlosberg
Environmental political theorist David Schlosberg joined the University of Helsinki in September, holding a joint professorship on environmental politics between two faculties.
He arrived in Helsinki after three decades of work in the United States, the United Kingdom and, for the last 15 years, Australia. Schlosberg describes himself as part environmental political theorist, part empirical environmental social scientist. He is best known for a framework for understanding environmental and climate justice that he first published more than 25 years ago.
