In this benchmark volume top scholars come together to present
state-of-the-art research and pursue a more rigorous framework for
understanding and studying the linkages between social and
ecological systems. Contributors from a wide spectrum of
disciplines, including archaeology, anthropology, geography,
ecology, palaeo-science, geology, sociology, and history, present
and assess both the evolution of our thinking and current,
state-of-the-art theory and research. Covering ancient through
modern periods, they discuss the complex ways in which human
culture, economy, and demographics interact with ecology and
climate change. The World System and the Earth System is critical
reading for all scholars and students working at the interface of
nature and society.Contributors: Thomas Abel, Bjorn Berglund, Chris
