Description

Explore the complex relationship between environmental shifts and local culture in this scholarly work from Routledge. The book examines how the citizens of the Marshall Islands process the reality of climate change through their own unique lenses. Rather than dismissing the warnings, the Marshallese people have actively interpreted these threats through local observation, scientific communication, and Biblical exegesis. This study provides a deep look into how grassroots society responds to the rising tide. It investigates why residents have embraced the threat despite having reasons to ignore it, and how they have adopted in-group blame rather than forswearing responsibility. As the conversation around resettlement grows, this text offers essential insights into how a community navigates the tension between tradition and an uncertain environmental future. It is a significant addition to the Routledge Studies in Anthropology series for those studying social sciences and island cultures.
