Finn Arne Jørgensen (1975- ) is a historian of technology and environment. He is Professor of environmental history at University of Stavanger, Norway. His research centers on the meeting points between technological infrastructures, nature, and environmentalism, arguing that we cannot properly understand and address the sustainability issues the world faces today without exploring the historical intertwining of technology and environment that fundamentally shape our experience of the world. His first book, Making a Green Machine: The Infrastructure of Beverage Container Recycling (Rutgers University Press, 2011) examines the modern history of bottle and can recycling in Norway, Sweden, and the United States. His second book, Recycling (MIT Press), will be out in the fall of 2019. He is also co-editor of New Natures: Joining Environmental History with Science and Technology Studies (with Dolly Jørgensen and Sara B. Pritchard, University of Pittsburgh Press, 2013).
He earned his PhD in Science and Technology Studies (STS) at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim, Norway, in 2007. Together with Dolly Jørgensen, he directs The Greenhouse: An Environmental Humanities Initiative at University of Stavanger.
