在呼吁环境学术范式转变的过程中,我们追踪了一个关于环境价值观、知识和行为(EVKB)如何随着移民过程而变化(或不变化)的新兴文献。我们专注于少数世界的多数世界移民的作用。对EVKB的大规模调查研究开始考虑种族和移民历史作为重要的变量,但往往离开环境和环境行为的概念未经审查。因此,西方的EVKB指标往往被普遍化,而不是被理解为本身具有文化特异性。一个新兴的文献试图通过扩大环境行为的概念化,包括大多数世界移民的做法,以提高对EVKB的定量和定性研究。这些研究为文化适应过程提供了新的视角,因为它对可持续做法具有破坏性或巩固性的潜力。我们总结了未来研究的四个启示。在研究设计和方法上需要超越西方逻辑。关于环保行为中“亲”的简单假设需要受到挑战。应找出并审查EVKB在移民后持续存在并对更广泛人口产生积极影响的案例。迁移过程提供了实时实验,以制定替代世界。
Amidst calls for paradigm shifts in environmental scholarship, we track an emergent literature on how environmental values, knowledge and behaviour (EVKB) change (or not) with the migration process. We focus on the role of Majority World migrants to the Minority World. Large-scale survey research into EVKB is beginning to consider both ethnicity and migration history as important variables, but tends to leave the concepts of environment and environmental behaviour unexamined. Western EVKB indicators thus tend to be universalized rather than understood as themselves culturally specific. An emergent literature attempts to improve both quantitative and qualitative research on EVKB by broadening the conceptualization of environmental behaviour to include the practices of Majority World migrants. Those studies throw new light on the process of acculturation as having disruptive or solidifying potential for sustainable practices. We summarize four implications for future research. There is a need to go beyond western logics in research design and method. Straightforward assumptions about the ‘pro’ in pro-environmental behaviour need to be challenged. Cases of EVKB’s persistence post-migration and positive influence on the broader population should be sought out and examined. The migration process provides real-time experiments in enacting alternative worlds.
