"Adds a significant dimension to Latin American environmental history. It is one of the first sustained investigations of the human and economic costs of climate change in the region, and numbers among a handful of studies to weigh the long-term implications of glacier retreat anywhere in the world." --American Historical Review "In the Shadow of Melting Glaciers addresses a topic that has been virtually unexplored in the historiography of the Andes and will be regarded as a significant contribution to the study of the historical construction of nature and disasters. In this original and beautifully written book, Mark Carey contributes to the study of Andean environmental, political, economic, and cultural history."-Carlos Aguirre, University of Oregon "Mark Carey puts local people at the center of his path-breaking historical analysis. Here, culture often trumps science in shaping human adaptations to global climate change."-Julie Cruikshank, author of Do Glaciers Listen? Local Knowledge, Colonial Encounters, and Social Imagination "Glaciers in the Cordillera Blanca have attracted my scientific interest for more then twenty years. Still, I never got rid of a feeling that there is something behind the objectively scrutinized glaciers that we cannot understand. After reading Mark Carey's book all the interest of the people in 'their' glaciers, and even more their disinterest in them, became evident to me. I started to understand why our instruments have been locked away by local communities for years, why regional policy makers listened to our accounts about dangers and threats from glaciers with apparently great interest but without any intent for taking action. In the Shadow of Melting Glaciers is highly attractive for scientists of all kinds by showing in an emphatic way how incomplete scientific results can remain without understanding the related societies' perceptions."-Georg Kaser, University of Innsbruck "This is a compelling, meticulously documented, and jargon-free presentation of the social changes a highly stratified, remote society has faced over the past 70 years. Highly recommended." -- CHOICE "A rigorous, meticulous, and engaging study...This is a book that should be required reading for anyone interested in environmental history or the history of science and technology in Latin America and beyond but it will also prove accessible to upper level undergraduate and graduate courses on Modern Latin America in general." --Contra Corriente In this timely book, Mark Carey explores this recent environmental history by examining not just the relationship between humans and their physical environment, but also that among the growing number of stakeholders involved in the mitigation process, including glacier experts, state institutions and scientific commissions, industry advocates and, above all, the Andean peoples themselves. Social History A captivating historical analysis rich with insight into one of the more urgent topics of our time human response to climate change . In a world dangerously enamored with the promise of the amoral technological fix, the book also offers the important reminder that all scientific expertise is socially and historically constructed and suggests that seeing scientists and engineers as stakeholders rather than objective producers of information may facilitate the implementation of mitigation and adaptation processes that must balance the needs of diverse and oft-conflicted groups.

Synopsis
Climate change is producing profound changes globally. Yet we still know little about how it affects real people in real places on a daily basis because most of our knowledge comes from scientific studies that try to estimate impacts and project future climate scenarios. This book is different, illustrating in vivid detail how people in the Andes have grappled with the effects of climate change and ensuing natural disasters for more than half a century. In Peru's Cordillera Blanca mountain range, global climate change has generated the world's most deadly glacial lake outburst floods and glacier avalanches, killing 25,000 people since 1941. As survivors grieved, they formed community organizations to learn about precarious glacial lakes while they sent priests to the mountains, hoping that God could calm the increasingly hostile landscape. Meanwhile, Peruvian engineers working with miniscule budgets invented innovative strategies to drain dozens of the most unstable lakes that continue forming in the twenty first century.But adaptation to global climate change was never simply about engineering the Andes to eliminate environmental hazards. Local urban and rural populations, engineers, hydroelectric developers, irrigators, mountaineers, and policymakers all perceived and responded to glacier melting differently - based on their own view of an ideal Andean world. Disaster prevention projects involved debates about economic development, state authority, race relations, class divisions, cultural values, the evolution of science and technology, and shifting views of nature. Over time, the influx of new groups to manage the Andes helped transform glaciated mountains into commodities to consume. Locals lost power in the process and today comprise just one among many stakeholders in the high Andes-and perhaps the least powerful. Climate change transformed a region, triggering catastrophes while simultaneously jumpstarting modernization processes. This book's historical perspective illuminates these trends that would be ignored in any scientific projections about future climate scenarios., Climate change is producing profound changes globally.

This book's historical perspective illuminates these trends that would be ignored in any scientific projections about future climate scenarios., Global climate change has triggered profound changes at the ground level and for real people. This book illustrates in vivid detail how 25,000 Peruvian residents died from melting Andean glaciers. Successful engineering efforts to prevent additional catastrophes simultaneously helped commodify glaciers, erode local authority, and unleash contested modernization agendas in the Andes.
