The technopolitics of climate change: climate models, geopolitics, and governmentality<\/a>, published in HCS-Manguinhos (vol.24\u00a0no.4 Oct.\/Dec.\u00a02017), by\u00a0Jean Carlos Hochsprung\u00a0Miguel,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Postdoctoral fellow at Universidade Federal de S\u00e3o Paulo, examines the climate modeling of\u00a0Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) and its implications to politics.<\/p>\n

Climate models\u00a0use\u00a0quantitative methods\u00a0to simulate the interactions of the important drivers of climate, including\u00a0atmosphere and oceans. \u00a0They are used for a variety of purposes from study of the dynamics of the climate system to projections of future\u00a0climate.<\/p>\n

According to the article,\u00a0the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC – United Nations) plays out in line with the organizational principle of a \u201cbalanced geographic representation,\u201d that is, the idea of including members from various countries on the panel and assessing scientific output from member countries for use in reports. While more researchers from developing nations have been incorporated into the institutional framework of the IPCC during the course of drafting these reports.<\/p>\n

Based on an empirical study of climate modeling at INPE, the article explores how climate modeling represents a pragmatic government approach within the international framework of global climate knowledge production.<\/p>\n

In examining the political dimension of processes of climate knowledge production, the article identified initiatives that have been taken by scientific groups linked to the Brazilian State and that have the intention of moving beyond inequalities in the international science system.<\/p>\n
