Environmental Sociology
In this book the author argues that society's willingness to recognise and solve environmental problems rests primarily upon the claim-making activities of a number of issue entrepreneurs in science, mass-media and politics.
Environmental Sociology
The third edition of John Hannigan’s classic undergraduate text has been fully updated and revised to highlight contemporary trends and controversies within global environmental sociology. Environmental Sociology offers a distinctive, balanced treatment of environmental issues, reconciling Hannigan’s much-cited model of the social construction of environmental problems and controversies with an environmental justice perspective that stresses inequality and toxic threats to local communities.

Rise of the Spectacular
In this prequel to Fantasy City: Pleasure and Profit in the Postmodern Metropolis (1998), his acclaimed book about the post-industrial city as a site of theming, branding and simulated spaces, sociologist John Hannigan travels back in time to the 1950s. Unfairly stereotyped as ‘the tranquillized decade’, America at mid-century hosted an escalating proliferation and conjunction of ‘spectacular’ events, spaces, and technologies. Spectacularization was collectively defined by five features. It reflected and legitimated a dramatic increase in scale from the local/regional to the national. It was mediated by the increasingly popular medium of television. It exploited middle-class tension ...

Fantasy City
Fantasy City analyses the post-industrialist city as a site of entertainment. By discussing examples from a wide variety of venues, including casinos, malls, heritage developments and theme parks, Hannigan questions urban entertainments economic foundations and historical background.

The book is written in a student friendly way with boxed case studies for class discussion.

Behavior Solutions
"In Behavior Solutions: Teaching Academic and Social Skills Through RTI at Work, authors John Hannigan, Jessica Djabravan Hannigan, Mike Mattos, and Austin Buffum address the role that student behaviors and emotional states play in schools and describe how students are generally lacking the support they need to pursue positive behaviors. This systemic behavior gap can be bridged, the authors state, by utilizing the PLC framework and RTI process to create a system of behavioral supports in multiple tiers (prevention, intervention, and remediation). However, success in this effort requires schoolwide structures that are collaborative, research-based, and practical. As such, this book provides the guidance necessary to integrate and apply essential behavior standards, processes, tools, and resources that allow the reader's school to function as a PLC that provides behavioral support at all 3 tiers through a thorough implementation of the RTI process. Readers will be able to utilize this book to develop a strong, collaborative PLC structure in their school that successfully addresses the behavioral needs of all of their students"--
