- This 95,000 word book is based on a database of over 600 examples of climate experimentation, over 200 interviews, and evidence gathered from eight case study cities. The research was funded by Bulkeley’s ESRC Climate Change Leadership Fellowship (2008 – 2012). At the heart of the book is the development of an analytical framework through which to understand the process and consequences of experimentation. This was a complex task, given that the book is the first account of ‘government by experiment’ and one of the first to undertake comparative analysis of urban climate politics in the global North and South.
