Situating Sustainability reframes our understanding of sustainability through related concepts, practices, and case studies. The differing geographic scope of this volume is joined by the disciplinary diversity of the contributors, bringing together researchers from cultural studies, anthropology, literature, law, behavioral science, urban studies, design, and development. The work of researchers and artists enables readers to better understand what sustainability means in their own locations, and how work in one place might support the efforts of others in other places.
