Description
Focusing on climate-induced migration from Africa to Europe, Climate Change and Migration shows how global warming's impact on international relations has been significant, enhancing the security regimes in not only the advanced economies of the North Atlantic, but in the states that serve as transit points between the most advanced and most desperate nations. With an in-depth coverage of both environmental and border policy from a global perspective, the book provides a provocative and much-needed link between two of the most pressing issues in contemporary international politics.
