The main aim of the paper is to provide a framework for understanding and explaining lived experience. It sets out to do this by examining the three strands of Marxian analysis that can be identified in human geography. All are subject to critique and found to present difficulties in terms of their own problematics for understanding lived experience. To retain a holistic, dialectical framework, humanistic elements from existential phenomenology are considered, although such humanism must be materially grounded. The notions of contradiction, alienation, seriality, and ideology are used to illustrate the potential of a critical, humanistic Marxian framework for understanding the nature, production, and reproduction of lived experience.

In this paper, we attempt to contribute to the growing environmental justice debate by exploring environmental equity in the forty-nine counties of Ontario, Canada. We use multiple regression analysis to address a central research question: what variables predict the location of pollution emissions? Data were extracted from the 1993 National Pollutant Release Inventory and the 1991 Census of Canada to assess relationships among socioeconomic class variables, industrial and land-use variables, and pollution emissions. The results agree with the findings of recent US studies. Manufacturing employment, urbanization variables, dwelling value, and household income were all significantly related to pollution emissions. These relationships took the same direction as in most of the US studies. In total, the four variables account for about 63% of the variation in pollution emissions (adjusted R2 = 0.626, p< 0.0001). Contrary to a hypothesis of environmental inequity, the household income variable displayed a positive relationship with pollution emissions. A conceptual model of the development process is formulated to explain the positive relationship between pollution emissions and income levels. We conclude the paper with suggestions for future research.
