Abstract: Climate change poses societal challenges on an unprecedented scale. It implies changes to North-South power balance and responsibility, forcing societies to begin to re-conceptualise current development models and dominant narratives. This paper draws on the Climate Change and Development Futures: Shaping the Invisible panel held at the Development Studies Association 2008 Annual Conference titled Development's Invisible Hands. It reviews some of the relevant literature and analyses the opportunities and barriers that development and Development Studies face in re-conceptualising development futures.
