Your submition must fall within the course literature,anything outside the course literature means a fail.You must go deep with your explanation.
You should write an essay which discusses the
following two questions:
1)
What understanding of the relationship
between society and nature is predominant in contemporary societies?
2)
How can that understanding (i.e. the
current relationship) be challenged?
In responding to both questions it is important to
build upon the course literature. When responding to the second questions you
should use different environmental sociological concepts and theories which may
serve to illustrate the unsustainability of current society-nature
relationships, and thereby suggest how a more sustainable relationship would
look like. You should introduce the concepts, define, and explain them.
Motivate how they may serve to challenge the dominant understanding of nature
in society and what changes they might suggest.
You are free to organize your essay and
argumentation as you see fit and to choose the concepts that you find the most relevant.
Your text will be assessed based on how you relate to and build upon the course
literature in your argumentation, your familiarity with and critical
understanding of the literature. Don’t forget that it is important to provide
clear references to the course literature in your text, with reference to the
specific page. Unless it is a reference to a very general argument, then you may
reference the whole book or chapter.
You should
write no more than 3 pages. Be aware that this means that you must work
carefully with your text, your arguments and references. Use 12p font size and
1.15 line spacing.
Good luck!
The home exam
must be written individually,
and you shall use your own formulations. Quotations,
which you should use sparsely, must be marked by quotation marks, and the
source correctly cited. Except for shorter quotations (correctly marked and
cited), it is not allowed to copy text from books, articles or any other
sources. It is neither allowed to use arguments from other texts without
correct reference to the source of inspiration. Suspected cheating or plagiarism is reported to the university’s
disciplinary committee.
