In this third edition of Anthropology and Climate Change, Susan Crate
and Mark Nuttall offer a collection of chapters that examine how
anthropologists work on climate change issues with their
collaborators, both in academic research and practicing contexts, and
discuss new developments in contributions to policy and adaptation at
different scales. Building on the first edition’s pioneering focus
on anthropology’s burgeoning contribution to climate change
research, policy, and action, as well as the second edition’s focus
on transformations and new directions for anthropological work on
climate change, this new edition reveals the extent to which
anthropologists’ contributions are considered to be critical by
climate scientists, policymakers, affected communities, and other
rights-holders. Drawing on a range of ethnographic and policy issues,
this book highlights the work of anthropologists in the full range of
contexts – as scholars, educators, and practitioners from academic
institutions to government bodies, international science agencies and
foundations, working in interdisciplinary research teams and with
community research partners. The contributions to this new edition
showcase important new academic research, as well as applied and
practicing approaches. They emphasize human agency in the
archaeological record, the rapid development in the last decade of
community-based and community-driven research and disaster research;
provide rich ethnographic insight into worldmaking practices,
interventions, and collaborations; and discuss how, and in what ways,
anthropologists work in policy areas and engage with regional and
global assessments. This new edition is essential for established
scholars and for students in anthropology and a range of other
disciplines, including environmental studies, as well as for
practitioners who engage with anthropological studies of climate
change in their work.
