Climate is an enduring idea of the human mind and also a powerful
one. Today, the idea of climate is most commonly associated with
the discourse of climate-change and its scientific, political,
economic, social, religious and ethical dimensions. However, to
understand adequately the cultural politics of climate-change it is
important to establish the different origins of the idea of climate
itself and the range of historical, political and cultural work
that the idea of climate accomplishes. In Weathered: Cultures of
Climate, distinguished professor Mike Hulme opens up the many ways
in which the idea of climate is given shape and meaning in
different human cultures - how climates are historicized, known,
changed, lived with, blamed, feared, represented, predicted,
governed and, at least putatively, re-designed.
