Zusammenfassung

The concept of Social Metabolism has gained a growing importance among the studies that try to understand human-nature interactions. Its impact has grown exponentially since the 1990s, being used by many authors representing different scientific disciplines. The main goal of this paper is to  provide a review of the state of the art concerning the social metabolism approach. We reconstruct the origins and history of the concept, its recent success, the methodological tools used and the principal findings it has generated.
