Abstract:This article starts from the debates over the reality of global warming and the politics of science, seeking to clarify what is at stake politically in constructivist understanding of science and nature. These related debates point to the centrality of modern science in political discussion of the environment and to the difficulties in warranting political action in the face of inevitably partial and uncertain scientific knowledge.
