Produktinformationen zu „Climate Change Economics between Europe and China (PDF)“

This book is the first attempt to highlight the Great Divergence between Europe and China from the perspective of environmental change. The author discusses the agrarian economy while considering the effects of climate change in both Europe and China at a long-term scale. The findings in the book supplement current knowledge and discussion on the Great Divergence across Eurasia.

The book further aims to empirically review the climatic impacts on the human community in the past as the relevant historical reference by which to understand human-nature linkages in the current Anthropocene epoch. The statistical analysis in the book will contribute to the development of relevant subjects, such as environmental humanities, quantitative history, and historical geography. The book thus is suitable to all levels of students, undergraduate and postgraduate, in the university.

In summary, by combining multiple disciplines in both methods and knowledge, this book becomes an interestingreference to students, academic staff, and even the general public. It may also appeal to policymakers, who aim to address the impacts of climate change according to past societal experiences.
