The volume Environmental Change and African Societies contributes
to current debates on global climate change from the perspectives
of the social sciences and the humanities. It charts past and
present environmental change in different African settings and also
discusses policies and scenarios for the future. The first section,
"Ideas", enquires into local perceptions of the environment,
followed by contributions on historical cases of environmental
change and state regulation. The section "Present" addresses
decision-making and agenda-setting processes related to current
representations and/or predicted effects of climate change. The
section "Prospects" is concerned with contemporary African
megatrends. The authors move across different scales of
investigation, from locally-grounded ethnographic analyses to
discussions on continental trends and international policy.
