Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork among policy makers, politicians, activists, scholars, and the public in Manchester, England-birthplace of the Industrial Revolution-Knox explores the city's strategies for understanding and responding to deteriorating environmental conditions. Climate science, Knox argues, frames climate change as a very particular kind of social problem that confronts the limits of administrative and bureaucratic techniques of knowing people, places, and things. Exceeding these limits requires forging new modes of relating to climate in ways that reimagine the social in climatological terms. Knox contends that the day-to-day work of crafting and implementing climate policy and translating climate knowledge into the work of governance demonstrates that local responses to climate change can be scaled up to effect change on a global scale. 606 $aSocial Science / Human Geography$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial Science / Anthropology / Cultural & Social$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial Science / Sociology / Urban$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial sciences 615 7$aSocial Science / Human Geography 615 7$aSocial Science / Anthropology / Cultural & Social 615 7$aSocial Science / Sociology / Urban 615 0$aSocial sciences 700 $aKnox$b Hannah$01275445 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910645997303321 996 $aThinking like a Climate$93005919 997 $aUNINA
