Anthropology and Climate Change - Susan A. Crate
From Actions to Transformations
KORTE INHOUD
This second edition introduces five new chapters, describing what anthropologists have learned about climate change over the last decade; new theoretical and practical perspectives; insights gleaned from sociology; and international efforts to study and curb climate change. It presents a series of case studies - both new cases and old cases viewed with fresh eyes - with the specific purpose of assessing what has been learned over time, and provides a close look at how climate change is affecting livelihoods, especially in the context of economic globalisation and the outmigration of youth from rural to urban areas. With expanded geographical coverage, it re-examines the conclusions and recommendations of the first edition, refining our knowledge of what we do and do not know about climate change and what we can do to adapt.
