The essence of the “strategic planning” is explored and the peculiarities of strategic planning in the agricultural sector are defined. Global climate change as a factor stimulating the formation of new approaches to strategic planning of agricultural development is considered, and the impact of climate change on the agricultural sector of Ukraine is evaluated. A predictive model of changes in the parameters of agricultural production under expected climate change conditions is constructed, and organizational, socio-economical and environmental components of the strategy of agricultural development are outlined and the conceptual bases for improvement of strategic planning for the development of the agricultural sector in the face of climate change are substantiated.

“…Much of Leiserowitz's work (e.g. Leiserowitz, 2006;Smith & Leiserowitz, 2012) on perceptions of climate change affect typifies this trend. In addition, the psychology that finds its way into other fields and applied contexts often remains mired in older models of risk perception with their highly cognitivist, rational focus on probability assessment.…”

This chapter explores how lay publics respond to potential disasters. It contends that the current risk perception field largely neglects the common-sense beliefs and emotions that lie at the root of public responses to risks. The chapter challenges several of the assumptions that buttress the conventional construal of the terms 'risk' and 'perception'. It proposes that the current focus on how the individual mind cognitively processes predictable, calculable phenomena should be replaced by emphasis on how emotional and socio-cultural beings represent often unknowable potential catastrophes. Social representations theory is put forward as a viable theoretical framework within which this shift could be achieved. The chapter illustrates the value of a social representations approach to studying risk by presenting the findings of a cross-cultural study examining social representations of earthquakes in cities at risk of earthquakes in the US, Japan and Turkey. The chapter concludes by proposing routes by which the findings of such studies could be channelled into behavioural intervention programmes.

“…Un estudio destacado a considerar es el realizado por Leiserowitz (2006), en el que la entrevista semi-estructurada parece ser la herramienta indiscutible de aplicar para evaluar la relación entre la imaginería, el afecto, los sentimientos, los factores culturales, las variables estructurales y la percepción pública frente al riesgo que introduce el cambio climático. En este sentido, cabe destacar lo relevante de su uso para distinguir claramente lo que se supone de la percepción pública al riesgo del cambio climático, de lo que realmente es.…”

INTRODUCCIÓNSe ha reconocido internacionalmente que el cambio climático introduce una mayor variabilidad climática (PARRY et al., 2007), la cual aumenta la incertidumbre sobre el régimen hidrológico de los cursos de agua e impacta negativamente la disponibilidad del recurso hídrico (BATES et al., 2008), por ejemplo introduce cambios en el patrón de caudales y cantidad de agua en los ríos (WHITFIELD et al., 2002) e intensifica los eventos extremos (STOTT et al., 2004). Con el objeto de disminuir, evitar, o sacar ventaja de estos posibles impactos se promueve desde la esfera política y científica la definición de estrategias de mitigación y adaptación (SMIT & PILIFISOVA, 2003;PIELKE et al., 2007).Ambas estrategias actúan complementariamente para hacer frente a este fenómeno, y buscan cambios conductuales y culturales por parte de todos los miembros de la sociedad. El primero, precisa cambios que conduzcan hacia la disminución de los gases de efecto invernadero (GEI) y de esta manera disminuir o frenar los impactos del cambio climático (SEMENZA et al., 2008) y, el segundo, tomar consciencia y realizar acciones tendientes a cambiar cualitativamente el curso del accionar antrópico, orientando el desarrollo de la economía y la sociedad hacia la sustentabilidad y de esta forma hacer frente a los impactos inevitables del cambio climático.De este modo, la investigación del cambio climático requiere de una línea de estudio que aborde la percepción de los ciudadanos, ya que la aplicación exitosa de cualquier estrategia, tanto de mitigación como adaptación, exige comprender el nivel
