[URBANTH-L]Request for reading ideas on social change, culture change, community and environment

[G.B.Prato at kent.ac.uk]

Dear Susan,
 
I am not sure whether a chapter I wrote on social change and legal reforms in Albania may be of interest to you. The full bibliographic reference is:
 
G.B.Prato, 2004 ‘The devil is not as wicked as people believe, neither is the Albanian’. In I. Pardo (ed.), Between Morality and Law. Corruption, Anthropology and Comparative Societies. Aldershot: Ashgate: 69-84.
 
On Environmentalism, I published a chapter in 1993: "Political decision-making: Environmentalism, ethics and popular participation in Italy". In K. Milton (ed.), Environmentalism: A view from Anthropology, London: Routledge: 174-88.
 
All the best,
 
Giuliana
