The book aims to bring together scholars from a variety of research disciplines to explore blue studies. The key idea is to show how transdisciplinary topics are integrated into collective or institutional narratives, what function they perform, and how they operate in public discourses. Our intention is to demonstrate how blue narratives and the meanings they carry about water ecosystems influence the social system and its components, and how symbolic value is created within the cultural system of blue economies. In doing so, this volume will significantly contribute to the development of transdisciplinary dialogue between the Humanities and Natural Sciences, studying the context of the rapidly developing agenda of the Blue Humanities.
