It considers climate change as more than a problem that can be addressed solely through technical expertise. Instead, it approaches climate change as an adaptive challenge that is fundamentally linked to beliefs, values and worldviews, as well as to power, politics, identities and interests. Drawing on case studies from high-income countries, the book argues that it is time to consider adaptation to climate change as a challenge of social, personal and political transformations. The authors represent a variety of fields and perspectives, illustrating the importance of interdisciplinary approaches to the problem. The book will be of interest to researchers, policy makers and advanced students in the environmental sciences, social sciences and humanities, as well as to decision makers and practitioners interested in new ideas about adapting to climate change"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Climatic changes $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Climatic changes $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Climate change mitigation $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Climate change mitigation $x Political aspects. 700 1 $a O'Brien, Karen L., $e editor. 700 1 $a Selboe, Elin, $e editor. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220706015820.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217015116.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F34A2996ECCE11E5A64DF5B3DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
