LEFF, Enrique. Sustainability and Environmental Rationality: towards "another" environmental sociology program. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2011, vol.73, n.1, pp.5-46. ISSN 2594-0651.
The environmental crisis emerges as a crisis of knowledge, which problematizes the logic of sciences and the theoretical status of the social sciences, separated from society's ecological conditions of sustainability. Questioning the theoretical frameworks of traditional sociology and the logic of the social sciences -Marxism, structural-functionalism, the philosophy of language, constructivism, hermeneutics- the author proposes the conceptual bases and ethical-philosophical principles of a prospective environmental sociology which, by transcending the inquiry into the environmental crisis as a social construction, becomes a form of knowledge that accompanies the construction of a sustainable future based on the category of environmental rationality.
