Preferred term

international environmental movements  

Definition(s)

  • International environmental movements are social movements that contest, at an international and sometimes global scale, different kinds of global environmental degradation. They try to show that this degradation is largely the result of current patterns of production, consumption, transportation, and energy use and, more generally, the prevailing organization of social life and the present international economic and political order.
