This article examines the semiotics of epistemic politics surrounding climate change denial on Tangier Island, Virginia, a shrinking inhabited island in the Chesapeake Bay, USA.

Denial is treated as a symbolic act, not reducible to misinformation or scientific illi…

This article argues that reconsidering the sugar question provides evidence for a shift in the political-econom…
