Title	Climate, affluence, and culture / Evert Van de Vliert. Climate, Affluence, & Culture
Physical Description	1 online resource (ix, 253 pages) : digital, PDF file(s).
Series	Culture and psychology
Notes	Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).
Contents	Creators of culture -- Climate colors life satisfaction -- Cash compensates for climate -- Work copes with context -- Survival, self-expression, and easygoingness -- Cooperation -- Organization -- Bird's-eye views of culture.
Summary	Everyone, everyday, everywhere has to cope with climatic cold or heat to satisfy survival needs, using money. This point of departure led to a decade of innovative research on the basis of the tenet that climate and affluence influence each other's impact on culture. Evert Van de Vliert discovered survival cultures in poor countries with demanding cold or hot climates, self-expression cultures in rich countries with demanding cold or hot climates, and easygoing cultures in poor and rich countries with temperate climates. These findings have implications for the cultural consequences of global warming and local poverty. Climate protection and poverty reduction are used in combination to sketch four scenarios for shaping cultures, from which the world community has to make a principal and principled choice soon.
