Ecological Unequal Exchange: Consumption, Equity, and Unsustainable Structural Relationships within the Global Economy (2007, methodology): “Diverse strands of research in political ecology, world-systems theory, anthropology, and ecological economics are focused upon such ecological distributional patterns (Andersson and Lindroth, 2001; Bunker, 1985; Giljum and Eisenmenger, 2004; Hornborg, 1998a, 1998b, 2001; Jorgenson, 2003; Muradian a”

This apple is too ugly for me!: Consumer preferences for suboptimal food products in the supermarket and at home (2017, background): “These five North-Western European countries are comparable in terms of urbanization, literacy rates, ecological footprint, and world system position (Jorgenson, 2003), and therefore we expected the outcomes and recommendations to have high generalizability and utility for North-West Europe.”
Ecologically Unequal Exchange, Ecological Debt, and Climate Justice (2009, background): “A series of recent studies have also confirmed the negative social and environmental impacts for developing countries of integration into the world economic system (Jorgenson, 2003, 2006, 2009).”
