Abstract

We have increasingly more knowledge about the factors and processes that determine or shape adaptive capacity, but few studies that specifically address whether such capacity in fact is activated and used. In this chapter we draw on findings from a number of related empirical studies undertaken in northern Norwegian coastal communities between 2007 and 2014 to investigate whether the narrative, ‘vi står han av’ –“we face whatever comes”, as a subjective dimension of adaptive capacity, reflects how climate change is perceived and acted upon. We argue that the narrative reflects a discourse within which fishers perceive changing weather and the need for climate adaptation. By looking at this narrative as an analytical object we are able to identify how underlying meaning and worldview among fishers structure and constitute aspects of latent adaptive capacity.
