The topic of this special journal issue is focused on the contemporary highly relevant theme of mutually interlinked social and environmental conflicts and their possible resolution. It is analysed from perspectives of several important thematic aspects of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research (philosophy and sociology) and territorial perspectives. The guest editor of the thematic issue, Marek Hrubec, invited authors of articles from the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, Brazil, the UK, and the USA. They analyse social and environmental conflicts mainly in four territorial areas: in Europe, the USA, India, China, and Africa. At the same time, several of them explain the relations between social and environmental risks and threats on the global level as well. Analyses cover issues of Anthropocene, the global climate change and related ecological and socio-economic problems, including migration, hunger, poverty, warfare, and a construction of new territories based on a repressive idea of emptiness even if the local indigenous people live there. It also deals with possible positive solutions in relation to ecological civilization and a real sustainable trajectory with social and environmental justice. The publication of the thematic issue in Brazil aims to stress also the importance of the Amazon Rainforest which is crucial for the global environment. The issue includes articles written by Angela Camana and Jalcione Almeida (both from PUC-RS, Porto Alegre, Brazil), Leslie Sklair (LSE, London, UK), Jerry Harris (GSA, Chicago, USA), Richard Sťahel (SAS, Slovakia), Josef Šmajs (MU, Brno, Czechia), and Marek Hrubec, Oleg Suša, and Jiří Krejčík (all the three from the Centre of Global Studies, IP CAS, Prague, Czechia).
