COP21 and the ""climatisation"" of global debates Governing through verbs: The practice of negotiating and the making of a new mode of governance The necessary and inaccessible 1.5°C objective: A turning point in the relations between climate science and politics? The business voice at COP21: The Quandaries of a Global Political Ambition The ins and outs of climate movement activism at COP21 Follow the money: Climate philanthropy from Kyoto to Paris The partial climatisation of migration, security and conflict Climate change, a new ""buzzword"" for the ""perpetual present"" of development aid? Objectifying traditional knowledge, re-enchanting the struggle against climate change The end of fossil fuels? Understanding the partial climatisation of energy policy"ReviewsAykut, Foyer and Morena have produced a unique volume of rich case studies on the performative function of COP21 in Paris. It drives forward our understanding, in new and unexpected ways, of how the idea of climate change alters political, social and cultural worlds, just as importantly as a changing physical climate is altering the material world. These 200 pages are an important complement to the 3000 pages of the last IPCC report. - Mike Hulme, Professor of Climate and Culture, King's College London, UK Globalising the Climate brings together ten fascinating and original takes on key under-discussed elements of the climate change issue and the 2015 Paris negotiations in particular. The volume also brings central Francophone debates to English language readers-an overdue and much-needed contribution. - J. Timmons Roberts, Ittleson Professor of Environmental Studies and Sociology, Brown University, USA Only the ethnographic method could give us such a remarkable view of what is arguably the most important diplomatic event since the birth of the United Nations. The authors' descriptions give a vivid understanding of the conundrum of climate diplomacy: it is supposed to cover the whole globe and yet it reduces the globe to a tiny set of documents and issues inside small closed rooms and local events. This is political anthropology at its best. - Bruno Latour, Professor, Sciences Po Paris, France In combining critical analysis and ethnographic fieldwork, Globalising the Climate provides the reader with unique insights into climate governance in-the-making and valuable examinations of the many ways in which the warming climate transforms other global debates. Thought-provoking and timely. - Oliver Geden, Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik, Berlin, Germany """Aykut, Foyer and Morena have produced a unique volume of rich case studies on the performative function of COP21 in Paris.
