人们认为,个人、机构和组织行为的改变是可持续发展的先决条件。本文提出了如何最好地实现这种变化的问题。行为上的改变和态度上的改变是有区别的,有人认为,态度上的改变会导致前者更安全、更持久的改变。财政激励作为一种改变行为的手段,与“环境公民”改变态度的途径进行了比较和对比,后者根植于对正义和不公正的考虑。最后,高中阶段的公民课程被认为是促进环境或生态公民的一种方式。版权所有(C) 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd和ERP Environment。
It is assumed that changes in the behaviour of individuals, institutions and organizations are a prerequisite for sustainable development. This article broaches the question of how best to bring about such change. A distinction is drawn between changes in behaviour and changes in attitudes, and it is argued that attendance to the latter will lead to more secure and long-lasting changes in the former. Fiscal incentives, as a means of changing behaviour, are compared and contrasted with the 'environmental citizenship' route to attitude change, rooted in considerations of justice and injustice. Finally, the citizenship curriculum at high school level is considered as a way of promoting environmental or ecological citizenship. Copyright (C) 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.
