Dear Colleague,
We are pleased to announce that the latest issue of Nature and Culture has recently been published by Berghahn Journals. This special issue is comprised of articles presented at the first conference of the Energy & Society network, held with the support of the European Sociological Association at the Institute of Social Sciences, University of Lisbon, in March 2012. Holding these articles together is a discussion of how different elements (either social structures, like the public sphere or the family, or technologies) contribute to change or to socially reproduce energy cultures and practices of consumption.
Please visit the Berghahn website for more information about the journal:
