Dear all, The book on the project, for which I received the DVPW Teaching Award, was published "open access" this week: "The Environment in Global Sustainability Governance" (Bristol University Press), including interviews by students with the authors (after each chapter), https://bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/the-environment-in-global-sustainability-governance 😀
Here you can find videos of the lectures that the authors gave last year at the FU Berlin on their chapters: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHT9ScVgSX3mnVpPFkPwekHloNVb-WOpu I am now continuing the idea of having the students conduct interviews by having them conduct interviews - embedded in podcasts - on the implementation of the SDGs in Germany. They submit the transcripts with academic references instead of traditional term papers. More suggestions for didactic preparation can be found here (in German): https://www.dvpw.de/blog/stockholm-50-fuenf-jahrzehnte-globaler-umweltpolitik-ein-lehrprojekt-von-lena-partzsch<https://lnkd.in/eGqd4QSY> The combination of chapter/reader text and video is well suited for teaching. My aim behind the project was to show the importance of political science for global environmental crises. The project was originally intended primarily for students in interdisciplinary programs, but the material is also very suitable for introducing environmental issues to political science majors. Some of the chapters - especially Chapter 10 on eco-feminism by Sherilyn MacGregor and Ursula Mäki - are now also making waves in research, which of course makes me incredibly happy. I can’t resist and add the endorsements here that Oran Young and Michele Betsill formulated for the backside of the paper copy (thanks again!): “This timely book vigorously tackles the central challenge of the SDGs: how to resolve the tension between development featuring economic growth and the limitations of the Earth’s atmospheric, marine and terrestrial systems.” Oran Young, University of California, Santa Barbara “This volume reveals the international community’s ongoing struggle to reconcile environmental, social and economic goals through the UN Sustainable Development Goals. It is a must-read for anyone thinking about the challenge of reforming global sustainability governance beyond the SDGs.” Michele Betsill, University of Copenhagen Please use the materials and spread the word! Many thanks to all contributing authors, students and the numerous anonymous reviewers for their constructive feedback on the chapters and the book (no funding behind this, all volunteer effort)! All the best Lena Lena Partzsch is Prof. of Comparative Politics with a focus on Environment at the Freie Univ.
