Building on the Weberian theoretical framework of social closure, coupled with a social practices approach, Murphy presents the climate crisis in a new, and dare I say even hopeful, light."--Michael S. Carolan, PhD, College of Liberal Arts, Professor, Colorado State University, USA "This is the long-awaited first book on the climate crisis to use Murphy's social closure framework. He contributes a brilliant and candid sociological analysis of structures, impacts, and solutions of climate change. Murphy stresses the importance of visibility and concreteness to raise our awareness in order to efficiently mitigate the problem." - Koichi Hasegawa, Professor-emeritus of Tohoku University, Japan This book analyses the threat posed by the continued use of fossil fuels. By utilizing Elizabeth Shove's social practices approach and Murphy's own social closure framework, the book examines the accelerating treadmill of carbon-polluting practices. It incorporates externalities theory to investigate how the full cost of fossil fuels is paid by others rather than users, and to demonstrate that the environmental commons is a medium for conveying intergenerational monopolisation and exclusion in the Anthropocene. Murphy uncovers a pattern of opposition to change when exploiting valuable but dangerous resources. He argues that a new faith in mastering nature is emerging as a belief in just-in-time technological solutions to circumvent having to change fossil-fuelled practices. The book then moves on to assess proposed solutions, including Beck's staging of risk and his hypothesis that the anticipation of global catastrophe will incite emancipation. It proposes a novel approach to enhancing foresight and avoid incubating disaster. It will appeal to readers interested in an original social science analysis of this creeping crisis and its resolution. Raymond Murphy is Emeritus Professor of Sociology at the University of Ottawa, Canada and Past-president of the Environment and Society Research Committee, International Sociological Association. He has authored multiple books including Social Closure (1988) and Leadership in Disaster (2009) 001432054 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001432054 650_0 $$aClimatic changes. 001432054 650_0 $$aFossil fuels$$xEnvironmental aspects. 001432054 650_6 $$aClimat$$xChangements. 001432054 650_6 $$aCombustibles fossiles$$xAspect de l'environnement. 001432054 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001432054 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMurphy, Raymond, 1943-$$tFossil-fuelled climate crisis.$$dCham, Switzerland : Palgrave Macmillan, [2021]$$z3030533247$$z9783030533243$$w(OCoLC)1158495135 001432054 852__ $$bebk 001432054 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-53325-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001432054 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1432054$$pGLOBAL_SET 001432054 980__ $$aBIB 001432054 980__ $$aEBOOK 001432054 982__ $$aEbook 001432054 983__ $$aOnline 001432054 994__ $$a92$$bISE
