By exploring the intersection of urbanization, consumerism, and colonialism, the book sheds new light on the origins and development of the economic system that has shaped our world today. What sets this book apart is its unique approach, which challenges conventional wisdom and offers new insights into the complex relationships between culture, politics, and economics. The book is intended for readers interested in the history and evolution of capitalism and its impact on society, as well as those interested in climate change and urbanization. The content level is accessible for general readers, yet sophisticated enough to appeal to scholars and researchers. The two most important features of the book are its fresh perspective on the history of mercantilism and its examination of the economic landscape of cities and climate change. By reading this book, readers gain a deeper understanding of the complex relationships between urbanization, colonialism, and economic policies, and their impact on contemporary society. 001483898 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 15, 2023). 001483898 650_6 $$aClimat$$xChangements$$xAspect social. 001483898 650_6 $$aClimat$$xChangements$$xAspect économique. 001483898 650_0 $$aClimatic changes$$xSocial aspects.$$xClimatic factors$$0(DLC)sh 92005008 001483898 650_0 $$aClimatic changes$$xEconomic aspects.$$xClimatic factors$$0(DLC)sh 92005008 001483898 650_0 $$aCity planning$$xEnvironmental aspects.$$zIndia$$0(DLC)sh2008100822 001483898 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001483898 7001_ $$aCheshmehzangi, Ali. 001483898 7001_ $$aJones, David S.$$q(David Shumway)$$0(OCoLC)oca05720162 001483898 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aAllam, Zaheer$$tClimate and Social Justice$$dSingapore : Springer Singapore Pte.
