Autorentext

Michael Maniates is former Professor of Social Science and former Chair of Environmental Studies at Yale-NUS College in Singapore. His teaching, research and writing have focused broadly on environmental politics, sustainable consumption, and oppositional forces to transformative environmental governance.

He has authored or co-authored five books and dozens of articles, opinion pieces, book chapters and review essays. His recent work explored systems of sustainable consumption and production, social innovations for a low-growth/high-prosperity world, and the pitfalls and promise of conscientious consumption. A teacher-scholar at heart, he is most proud of his 30+ years of working closely with undergraduate students in liberal-arts colleges (Allegheny College, Oberlin College and Yale-NUS College), and the contributions he has made to the design and implementation of empowering interdisciplinary environmental-studies programs in North America and Southeast Asia.
