Soviet Climate Change Science: Domestic Debates, International Collaboration and Future Climates: Routledge Studies in the History of Russia and Eastern Europe
Autor Jonathan D. Oldfield, Vladimir Jankovic, Katja Doose, Nina Kruglikova, Denis J.B. Shaw, Julia Lajusen Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 noi 2025
The book details the institutional underpinnings of Soviet activity in this area, the main scientific debates evident within key centres of climate-related science and the activities of Soviet scientists with respect to a range of international collaborations such as the 1972 US-USSR Agreement on Cooperation in the Field of Environmental Protection, the early work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the Greenhouse Glasnost initiative, which included the world’s first teleconference on climate change. It concludes with a reflection on the extent to which Soviet scientific legacies continued to shape Russian approaches to climate change post-1991.
This book will be of interest to those working on the historical and sociocultural aspects of climate change, providing the first detailed assessment of Soviet involvement in this critical area of scientific activity.
