Full Description
Aquapelagos is a cross-disciplinary volume that is geared to a general undergraduate and non-specialist readership while also being rigorous and theoretically exciting for doctoral and advanced researchers of climate and ocean studies. It foregrounds marine-terrestrial assemblages as philosophical, navigational, and knowledge-making interfaces.
Drawing on ethnographic, geographic, architectural, sociological, and scientific methodogies, Aquapelagos sheds light on varied approaches, dialogues, and responses to the catastrophic and impending futures unfolding across waterfronts from the Andaman Islands, Maldives, and Indonesia to the Grand Banks and the Juan Fernandez Islands. It delves into pressing issues of human interrelations with aquatic environments, ocean volatility, ocean toxicity, flooding, inundation, mitigation, rising seas, and climate adaptation in interdisciplinary and comparative global terms. Within the conceptual framework of the aquapelago, the contributors to this volume explore aspects of integrated terrestrial and marine assemblages that enhance our understanding of the impact of global climate change and related rising sea levels on diverse planetary ecologies and the societies that depend on them.
The volume will be of interest to scholars, researchers, and students of ethnography, social anthropology, climate action, development studies, public policy, and climate change.
