Tracing how people navigate the United Nations-led Conference of Parties (COP), Naveeda Khan walks us through the intricacies of climate negotiations and the ways countries of the Global South that are most vulnerable to climate change maneuver to make progress in a slow-moving process in which they are not expected to wield a great deal of influence. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFocusing on Bangladesh's delegation, Khan elaborates what it means to be a small, poor, and dependent country within the climate process. The book profiles how negotiators and activists bring their principles, strategies, emotions, and visions into view. It explores how the newest pillar of climate action, loss and damage, emerged historically, how developed countries have attempted to control it; and how it may be reformulated beyond the normal geopolitical faultlines as a gift to the youth of the world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDeeply insightful and highly readable, \u003ci\u003e In Quest of a Shared Planet \u003c\/i\u003eis a stirring call to action that highlights the key role responsive and active youth have in climate negotiations. It is an invitation not only to understand the climate negotiation process, but to navigate and critique it, with sympathy and an eye to viable alternatives. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eNaveeda Khan\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of Anthropology at Johns Hopkins University.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNaveeda Khan\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of Anthropology at Johns Hopkins University.
