Transition Movements
We are now in a historic moment that has to move on from
this threats of behaviour, particularly overpopulation, and
overconsumption to a new one that involves the dreams of
people about a future life with a better relationship with our
environment.
This transition into a new and more
sustainable society is part of the multiple movements found
nowadays as facts and not fiction to build in a sustainable
world. (Raskin et al 2002).
Psychological Perspectives
There are mainly six different psychological approaches that
have something important to contribute to the project of
building a sustainable world: Freudian psychology, Social
psychology, Behavioural psychology, physiological and Health
psychology, cognitive psychology and other holistic
approaches like Gestalt and Ecopsychology. Each of them
provides insights about changing individual behaviour,
thoughts, feelings, physiological reactions, or beliefs. (Dun
Nann, D and Koger, S. 2004.)
