Die transaktionistische Weltsicht — ein konzeptioneller Impuls für die Humanökologie?

  • Conference paper

Abstract

In environmental psychology discussions about a new theoretical approach have been going on for some time that may also be of special significance for further development of human ecology. Meanwhile, this “transactionism”, which is characterized by a radical holistic perspective, has grown into a paradigm of its own with interdisciplinary impact. On the basis of a survey by Altmann and Rogoff (1987), the auther refers to some major features of transactionism in comparison with other world views of the social sciences. It may be regarded as a special quality of transactionism that it offers the conceptual possibility to overcome that threefold dichotomy between individual, physical environment and social system which has been typical for various traditional approaches of human ecology.
