Resumen
The biophysical system sciences have responded quickly to the call of climate change. However, this situation contrasts with the late arrival of the social sciences in this field, manifesting a certain lack of “sociological imagination”. Climate change has anthropocentric causes produced by socially organised activities rooted in a certain logic of production and consumption practices. In that sense, the social sciences’ contribution lies in pointing out that its direct drivers are also embedded in broader social conditions, such as economic, technical, cultural, and governance systems, as well as social values, ideals, and material interests, which vary across geographic locations.
