Description

Weaving has been a significant aspect of India's cultural and economic history. Climate change is increasingly affecting crucial relationships within the weaver communities. This book explores the dialectical relationship between the craft of weaving and the changing climate.Exploring questions of how climate variabilities are affecting local geographies and weaving ecosystems, the book discusses case studies of creative economy clusters in India. The author employs ethnographic fieldwork to share lived and embodied experiences of climate change.This concise book will be useful reading to scholars, researchers and students with an interest in the creative and cultural industries and how these intersect with environmental issues and climate change.
