Narcissism is a complex and multifaceted personality trait, often characterized by an inflated sense of self-importance, a strong need for admiration, and a lack of empathy for others. While the term "narcissism" is often used casually to describe someone who appears vain or self-centered, its psychological meaning is more intricate and refers to a spectrum of behaviors that can range from mild self-interest to full-blown Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). At its core, narcissism is a defense mechanism that helps individuals maintain an exaggerated sense of self-worth. This inflated self-image may stem from deep insecurities or past trauma, and it can be a way for individuals to shield themselves from feelings of inadequacy or vulnerability. Narcissists often rely on external validation—through admiration, praise, and attention—to affirm their worth, which means their sense of self is fragile and dependent on how others perceive them. A key component of narcissism is the lack of empathy. Narcissists struggle to recognize or care about the feelings and needs of others. Instead, they view people primarily as tools for boosting their own status or fulfilling their desires. This absence of empathy can lead to shallow relationships and exploitation, as narcissists often fail to consider the emotional consequences of their actions on others.Show book
Environmental justice recognizes that environmental benefits and burdens should be distributed fairly, and that the people making policy decisions should incorporate the views of those most often harmed: people of color, Indigenous populations, low-income communities, and those who are underserved and disenfranchised for other reasons such as age, gender, or disability. It encompasses not only traditional environmental issues like clean air and clean water, but also social issues such as employment, nutrition, and access to health care. Although environmental justice is a relatively recent concept, it has become a focus of governmental environmental policy, UN actions, and the activities of many nongovernmental environmental organizations. Its development tracks our growing understanding of racism and wealth disparity in the United States and elsewhere, and of our understanding of inequality between the Global North and the Global South. In the era of climate change, climate justice is a particular focus.Environmental Justice: A Very Short Introduction defines the concept, identifies specific environmental justice populations, examines root causes, including racism, capitalism, and colonialism, and traces the history of the environmental justice movement and governmental responses to it. It concludes with suggestions for achieving this elusive goal.Show book
