Abstract

The relationship between the processes of industrial change and environmental change is examined. The focus of the analysis is the business enterprise which is used to ‘reembody’ environment—economy interdependencies and the concept of industrial metabolism. From this, a topography of enterprise and environment interrelationships is examined in terms of interorganisational and intraorganisational power networks and associated pollution signatures. To build a dynamic into the essentially static concept of power networks, the concept of circuits of power is elaborated.
