The Cool Water Effect -- Acknowledgements -- Praise for The Cool Water Effect -- Introduction -- Part I: Situating the CW-Condition in History -- Part II: Theorizing the CW-Condition’s Impact -- Part III: Evidencing the CW-Condition’s Impact -- Part IV: The CW-Condition’s Wider Implications.
This open access book unravels the geo-climatic source of the West's emancipatory struggles and why the spirit of these struggles is about to spread around the world beyond its original geo-climatic root which is described as the Cool Water (CW-) Condition: that is, the combination of mostly cool seasons with steady rain in coastal proximity. The book provides a novel geographic-environmental explanation for the development of democratic values and institutions in Western societies, examining how climate and geography have shaped political culture and social development.
