Climate Security in the Indo-Pacific
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-041-07840-1 (ISBN)
The Indo-Pacific is the world’s most exposed region to natural hazards, and climate change is highly likely to impact the frequency and severity of these events, threatening people’s lives and livelihoods. Over the last two decades, research into the security implications of climate change has gained considerable interest among scholars and policy analysts across the world. Evidence-based research has shown how the impact of climate change such as sea-level rise, long droughts and extreme weather events have led to loss of livelihoods, economic downturns, forced migration and health threats from emerging infectious diseases. The effects of climate change in turn have led to greater potential for conflicts breaking out in societies most affected by climate change. As countries in the region face both climate challenges and strategic competition, their experiences offer valuable insights into how we can tackle this issue.
This book is essential reading for students, scholars and policymakers engaged in the fields of climate change, security studies, and international relations.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Third World Quarterly.
