Sažetak
This paper looks at some circumstances which have encouraged or in certain ways discouraged the establishment of environmental sociology as a complete, academic, research discipline in sociology. The examination of these processes requires at least a brief comment on the theoretical heritage of sociology, social conditions in which sociology has developed in different social surroundings, as well as conditions which have determined its long-lasting limitations. Special attention has been given to (a) the acceptance of the fact that “environmental things” are socially conditioned and have social consequences, (b) the refusal of the fatal biological determinism and the importance of “social constructiveness”, when the environment is in question and (c) the role which social ecology and the sociology of human environment have played in the formation of environmental sociology.
