1035322811 PDF 1035322811 PDF by Ross M. Pink and Luthfi Dhofier In this timely work, Ross Michael Pink and Luthfi Dhofier detail specific case studies across eight countries to provide a crucial overview of the impacts of climate change. They highlight the importance of the human security paradigm, prioritising the rights of citizens rather than those of nations, to accurately assess this existential issue. Understanding Human Security and Climate Change critically analyses the climate challenges faced across North America, Africa and Asia, and their respective efforts to produce workable solutions. The threats to communities, the economy, healthcare, politics and personhood are compared, as well as the major policies and laws that have been introduced to tackle them. Each chapter contains insightful expert interviews, which contribute towards a better understanding of climate change and its consequences for humanity.
