A Political Ecology of Ecologies
Journal of Autoethnography, 2022In this short paper I discuss a day spent with a group of students in Glen Almond, Perthshire, in 2018. As I write this now, in 2022, I have the opportunity to situate my present thinking in the story and to think with the idea of a political ecology of ecologies, derived from an immanent ethics.

The Journal of Parasitology, 2000
There are 2 elements that make ‘‘crowding’’ interesting— mechanism (causality) and manifestation (effect). In our companion paper, Larry Roberts addresses mechanisms. Here, we focus on manifestation. As ecologists, it is difficult to get too excited about Clark Read’s paper on the ‘‘crowding effect’’ in cestodes, at least initially.

Medicina nei secoli, 2012
Ecology (from the Greek words οιχοσ, "house" and λογια "study of") is the science of the "house", since it studies the environments where we live. There are three main ways of thinking about Ecology: Ecology as the study of interactions (between humans and the environment, between humans and living beings, between all living beings, etc.), Ecology as ...

Topics in Cognitive Science, 2010
Cognitive ecology is the study of cognitive phenomena in context. In particular, it points to the web of mutual dependence among the elements of a cognitive ecosystem. At least three fields were taking a deeply ecological approach to cognition 30 years ago: Gibson's ecological psychology, Bateson's ecology of mind, and Soviet cultural-historical ...

Ecological Restoration in the Light of Ecological History
Science, 2009Ecological history plays many roles in ecological restoration, most notably as a tool to identify and characterize appropriate targets for restoration efforts. However, ecological history also reveals deep human imprints on many ecological systems and indicates that secular climate change has kept many targets moving at centennial to millennial time ...

Emphasizing the ecology in parasite community ecology
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2007In natural systems, individuals are often co-infected by many species of parasites. However, the significance of interactions between species and the processes that shape within-host parasite communities remain unclear. Studies of parasite community ecology are often descriptive, focusing on patterns of parasite abundance across host populations rather

How to Maintain Ecological Relevance in Ecology
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2015Ecology has developed from a descriptive science to a scientific field that has fostered general theories such as island theory and optimal foraging. It has become a hypothesis-driven science with scientists around the world working on the same body of theory.

Systems Ecology: Ecological Network Analysis
2019Ecological Network Analysis (ENA), based on network theory, is a methodology to quantify how objects interact with and depend on other objects in a system. Primary results from the method provide structural and functional properties of networks. A subset of ENA, Network Environ Analysis, divides the network into input and output “environs.” Application

Social Forces, 1944
government control tends to promote equal distribution of whatever advantages are derived from planning. Our open-class philosophy and broad educational base would tend to make planning for the exclusive benefit of the elite classes unworkable. Since dictatorial regimes, as well as social planning, tend to arise in crisis situations, it is not at all ...
