The Social Rules Project is a nonprofit public outreach initiative directed by Dr. Paul Steinberg, Professor of Political Science and Environmental Policy at Harvey Mudd College.
The Social Rules Project is the result of efforts by over 100 students from the Claremont Colleges and the California Institute of the Arts. Artists, computer programmers, environmental studies majors, musicians, and many others contributed countless hours to make these materials available. The goal of the project is to raise awareness about the institutional underpinnings of environmental problems and what it will take to solve them. This is accomplished by using innovative multi-media approaches to translate insights from the social science literature and make them accessible to a broad public.
