This book examines the history and politics of the organisation, and how this shapes its assessment practice and the climate knowledge it produces. Developing a new methodology, this book focuses on the actors, activities, and forms of authority affecting the IPCC's constructions of climate change. It describes how social, economic, and political dynamics influence all aspects of the organisation and its work. The book contributes to understanding the place of science in politics and politics in science, and offers important insights for designing new knowledge bodies for global environmental agreement-making. It is indispensable for students and researchers in environmental studies, international relations, and political science, as well as policymakers and anyone interested in the IPCC. * Reframes climate politics as a struggle over global order and explores the IPCC's role in influencing the representation of the issue, helping readers understand the political forces behind the organisation as well as how this influences their perception of the climate crisis * Presents an in-depth account of the IPCC's assessment practice to expand the reader's awareness of how an IPCC assessment is created and who has power in and over the process * Its new methodological approach and analytical framework enables the systematic study of the different actors within the IPCC as well as the activities in which they are involved, thus describing the social order and culture of the organisation to help scholars address questions of power TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgements List of acronyms 1.
