Here is a position piece I wrote a number of years ago. I'm putting it up for several reasons. First, it used to be on the web as part of the conference program, but the Australian Sociology Association took it down. While it was up, it made it to the top of the Google list when you searched for for ecological sociology. So, it needs to be returned to public view.
Second, I'm curious about embedding a pdf in a blog. So I thought I'd see if it would work. Here goes ....

Read it, and I agree with you on 'ecology' vs. 'environment'. That's why Hurricane Katrina is a perfect example of an "ecological" event, because it was an intersection of human and environment systems.
