Abstract
⺠Multi-sited ethnography of climate change adaptation in Mozambique analyzes political and social responses to floods. ⺠Stakeholders politicise climate change adaptation according to their own interpretations and interest. ⺠Local people seek continuity by incorporatingadaptationin their lifestyles and institutional interests. ⺠Powerful people - economically, socially, politically-are more successful in appropriating adaptationthan the poor. ⺠This is alarming because disaster response aims to target the poor as primary beneficiaries.
