Synopsis

The present scientific monograph was writ­ten by members of three departments of the Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana: Department of Geography, Department of History, and Department of Psychology. They address environmental change and the role of people in a changing environ­ment from different perspectives, with a focus on the Slovenian landscape. They have brought their findings together in a single scientific work, with each author remaining methodologically faithful to their primary area of research. The book consists of two parts. The chapters in the first analytical part detail past environmental changes (and responses to them) and, in particular, explain the extent of changes by interpreting a variety of data sources. The second part focuses on humans in terms of how we perceive environmental change and respond to it. In addition to a concise presentation of the theoretical background for understanding human reactions and responses, this part focuses on the results of surveys of Slove­nian residents and farmers.
