Organization & Environment aims to publish rigorous and impactful research on the management of organizations and its implications for the sustainability and flourishing of the social, natural and economic environment in which they act. To build effectively upon Braudel's ecohistorical insights, we might turn to Marx and Engels' ecological critique of capitalism. Unfortunately, Braudel's underconceptualized approach prevented him from identifying with greater specificity capitalism's world-ecological contradictions. Braudel understood nature in terms of transitory but identifiable socio-ecological moments that shape and are shaped by a world-ecological whole. In this fashion, Braudel implicitly suggests the concept "world-ecology." Although never spelled out in precisely these terms, the idea that ecogeographical processes permeate the ever-shifting relations of region, state, and world-economy runs like red thread through Braudel's corpus. Braudel's greatest historical-geographical insight is the idea that world-economies are not simply social constructions but also ecological projects. Arguing against the conventional view that Braudel regarded the environment as a backdrop, the essay points to his sophisticated layering of time, space, and nature in which society and ecology actively shape each other. This essay considers the relevance of Fernand Braudel's world-historical studies for the theory and practice of environmental history.
