Climate Change and Flood Risk Management discusses and
problematises the integration of adaptation to climate change in
flood risk management. The book explores adaptation to climate
change in relation to flood risk events in advanced industrial
states. It provides examples of how flood risk management, disaster
and emergency management, and adaptation to climate change may
intersect in a number of European and Canadian cases. Taken
together, the studies show that integration of adaptation in flood
risk and emergency management may differ strongly - not only with
risk, but with a number of institutional and contextual factors,
including capacities and priorities in the specific municipal cases
and within a national and wider context. The book will be relevant
to researchers involved with adaptation to climate change and those
involved with comprehensive planning in relation to it. It will
also be of interest to academics within the fields of environmental
studies and the environmentally-oriented social sciences.
