It is valuable for students and researchers looking at the politics of climate change.

Climate change is a multifaceted and politically charged issue that requires a comprehensive understanding of its various dimensions. This book aims to address this crucial but often overlooked question by examining politics from three distinct perspectives: as a site of authoritative decision-making, as a question of power, and as a conflictual phenomenon.
Throughout the book, recurring themes emerge, including de- and re-politicization, as well as the tension between simplifying climate change to a single problem and recognizing its inherent complexity. These dynamics are driven by processes of capital accumulation and the associated subjectivities that shape our understanding and response to climate change.
To explore these arguments, the book employs an analysis of a specific city, Ottawa, which serves as a microcosm of the broader processes at play. Through detailed examinations of conflicts over urban planning, transportation, and efforts by city government and other institutions to address climate change, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the political dimensions of climate change.
This book is particularly valuable for students and researchers interested in delving into the politics of climate change. It offers a wealth of insights and perspectives that will enhance their understanding of this critical issue and its potential implications for our future.
