Drawing on ethnographic, geographic, architectural, sociological and scientific methodogies, Aquapelagos sheds light on varied approaches, dialogues and responses to the catastrophic and impending futures unfolding across the waterfronts from the Andaman Islands, Maldives and Indonesia, to the Grand Banks and the Juan Fernandez Islands. It delves into pressing issues of ocean volatility, ocean toxicity, flooding, inundation, mitigation, rising seas, climate adaptation, in interdisciplinary and comparative global terms. The contributors of this volume explore notions such as the archipelago, lagoon thinking, coastal waterfronts and the littoral imagination as concepts that can open up new ways of understanding the ecologies emerging out of the increasingly wet, accelerated precipitation and global sinking of coastlands and islands across the world.
