  • Social Representation of Climate Change

    A case study from Hyderabad (India)

    par Fritz Reusswig, Lutz Meyer-Ohlendorf ...
    Collections Livre 4/2010 - Emerging megacities
    In this report we underline the importance of studying the social representation of climate change for climate policy, especially in a democracy such as India. Social representations are, from a social science point of view, no epiphenomena of ‘real’ issues, but the very fabric of individual reality and, building on that, collective decision making. If climate change is not socially represented, ... En savoir plus

Were the Andes the highest mountains on the Earth or was it the peak of Tenerife? Was the Earth a perfect sphere or slightly squashed as Sir Isaac Newton prophesized? In Weighing the World, master-surveyor and ... En savoir plus
