At first sight, sustainability and justice seem to constitute a harmonic relationship. A closer look very soon shows the tensions and cleavages establishing a complex and difficult field significant not only to policy making but also for research. This seminar takes on an interdisciplinary lens and focuses on the challenging inter-connections between inequality, environmental problems, economy and goals of sustainability. In a first step, it clarifies the social-scientific concepts of environmental justice as well as (strong and weak) sustainability. Secondly, we elaborate on the connections between sustainability and environmental justice using literature with environmentalist, institutionalist (institutions and governance), feminist, and post-colonial perspectives. By doing so, the course develops a set of insights and categories. These insights and categories will be needed for, fourthly, analysing potential solutions to the tensions to sustainability and justice (such like ecosystem services, ecological debt, ecovillages, time banks etc.).
