This book studies the topic of forced climate migrants (commonly
referred to as "climate refugees") through the lens of
international law and identifies the reasons why these migrants
should be granted international protection. Through an analysis
focused on climate change and human rights international law, it
points out the legal principles and rules upon which an
international obligation to protect persons forced to migrate due
to climate change is emerging. Sciaccaluga advocates for a state
obligation to protect climate migrants when their origin countries
have become extremely environmentally fragile due to climate
change-to the point of becoming unable to guarantee the exercise of
inalienable human rights in their territories. Turning to the
future, this book then investigates the current elements on which a
"forced climate migrants law" could be built, ultimately arguing
for the duty to provide some form of assistance to forced climate
migrants in a third state within the international legal system.
