World-ecology is a recently-articulated paradigm for studying world history (and by extension, other related topics). As Jason W. Moore, coordinator of the World-Ecology Network, argues: "The world-ecology perspective argues that humans are a part of nature, such that capitalism does not act upon nature but develops through the web of life". World-ecology thus enlists the idea of a unity between human beings and nature to critique the capitalist system.

In this regard, there have been three "International World-Ecology Conferences" as part of the operations of the "World-Ecology Research Network."
