7. 5. Social Ecography : International trade, network analysis, and an Emmanuelian conceptualization of ecological unequal exchange

   Författare :Carl Nordlund; Humanekologi; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; ecological unequal exchange; commodity trade; ecological economics; world-system analysis; network analysis; human ecology; ecography;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis demonstrates how network analysis, ecological economics and the world-system perspective can be combined into an ecographic framework that can yield new insights into the underlying structure of the world-economy as well as its surrounding world-ecology. In particular, the thesis focuses on the structural theory of ecological unequal exchange, a theory suggesting a relationship between positionality within the world-system and unequal exchange of biophysical resources.
