In recent years, interest in climate change within sociology and media studies has rapidly increased and yet there is still relatively little published material in the field. This book contributes to filling this gap by examining how climate change has developed, critically assessing past and current interventions from a sociological perspective.

"A must read for anyone who wants to make sense of the uncertainties of our times caused by climate change and fear of a bleak future. The analytical links established by the author between Elias' thought on civilising [and decivilising] processes and moral panic literature are very compelling." -- Aurélie Lacassagne, Associate Professor of Political Science, Laurentian University, Canada
"Amanda Rohloff's book makes a valuable contribution to the discussion of how the sociological perspective inspired by Norbert Elias can be extended to develop the historical sociology of moral panics, as well being a path-breaking intervention into the way we understand current debates around the vital question of climate change". -- Robert van Krieken, Professor of Sociology, University of Sydney, Australia
"Amanda Rohloff was a remarkable young thinker. She had the original idea that our contemporary concern with climate change has some of the characteristics of a moral panic -- but not in the usual sense of an overreaction, because the problem is very real. And she sets it in long-term and theoretical perspective, linking it to civilising and decivilising processes". -- Stephen Mennell, Professor Emeritus of Sociology, University College Dublin, Ireland
"Focusing on how climate change has come to be perceived as a major global threat, Amanda Rohloff has developed a challenging and sophisticated reformulation of the moral panic concept. A major contribution to ongoing debates about such panics, this highly original work is a fitting epitaph to an exceptionally promising and talented younger scholar". -- Julian Petley, Professor of Journalism, Brunel University London, United Kingdom
"This book constitutes a well-researched study on anthropogenic climate change as [a] social problem. Rohloff skilfully interweaves the moral panic sociological model with the figurational sociology of Norbert Elias. Providing original insights and suggestions for future research, she offers a rigorous approach for testing the moral panic concept and improving its reformulation". -- Morena Tartari, Lecturer of Sociology, University of Padova, Italy
"Climate change and moral panics are inherently political subjects. But amid heated debate, Amanda Rohloff keeps her cool and resists the temptation to indulge in moralising. Drawing on the theory of civilising processes, she provides a highly illuminating long-term and wide-ranging perspective in this exemplary work of sociology". -- Cas Wouters, Senior Lecturer of Sociology, Utrecht University, The Netherlands
"Bringing to bear both Elias's theory of civilising processes and Cohen's theory of moral panics on the problem of climate change, Rohloff has managed to shed real light on the greatest challenge facing global civilisation. This book is an accessible and constantly illuminating guide [to] the environmental politics of the biosphere that should be compulsory reading for anyone involved in climate change governance". -- Stephen Quilley, Associate Professor of Social and Environmental Innovation, University of Waterloo, Canada
"Amanda Rohloff 's book illustrates how the igniting of a sociological spark in an outstanding student began an impressive voyage of discovery. This innovative synthesis of Eliasian perspectives and moral panic theories greatly enhances our understanding of climate change politics and serves as a fitting tribute to a tragically foreshortened scholarly journey." -- David Pearson, Adjunct Reader, School of Social & Cultural Studies, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand
