Climate : From Regional Analysis to Stereotypes
The climate's variability has been perceived as a risk only since about 15 years ago. Studying this variability is now a social demand. Such knowledge is part of a region's economic infrastructure. Climate is part of the "lived-in-space" . As illustrated by the example of Irish farming and the 1845 famine, a systemic approach can be used to place historical, social, economic and climatic constraints on the same conceptual level. But the climate is also a renewable natural resource. By interpreting it, writers and film directors have helped create an image, a regional climatic myth, which advertizing has sometimes made into a sterotype. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
