The behavioral environment model, as developed by William Kirk, emphasizes the importance of perception in human geography, the significance of subjective experience, and the potential of man as an active agent in the environment. This book examines the concept of the behavioral environment. Drawing on Kirk's work, the contributors reflect on the original formulation of the theory, apply its cardinal principles in a wide variety of contexts and re-evaluate its cognitive claims in the light of recent debates in philosophy and social theory. The book provides new empirical studies and fresh theoretical perspectives and argues that the behavioral approach is vital to a consistent understanding of individual rights and ecological respect.
