ANTH452

Prerequisite: ANTH220, ANTH222, ANTH240, or ANTH260. Credit only granted for: ANTH452 or ANTH652. Human activities now influence ongoing global climatic change, and the outcome remains uncertain for communities and cultures around the world. This interaction between humans and climate provides a rich area of study for anthropologists in an interdisciplinary context. Case studies of historic and contemporary evidence will be used to understand impacts of global climate change and assess opportunities and barriers to successful responses and adaptation.
