In the age of climate change, the possibility that dramatic
environmental transformations might cause the dislocation of
millions of people has become not only a matter for scientific
speculation or science-fiction narratives, but the object of
strategic planning and military analysis. Environmental History of
Modern Migrations offers a worldwide perspective on the history of
migrations throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and
provides an opportunity to reflect on the global ecological
transformations and developments which have occurred throughout the
last few centuries. With a primary focus on the
environment/migration nexus, this book advocates that global
environmental changes are not distinct from global social
transformations. Instead, it offers a progressive method of
combining environmental and social history, which manages to both
encompass and transcend current approaches to environmental justice
issues. This edited collection will be of great interest to
students and practitioners of environmental history and migration
studies, as well as those with an interest in history and
sociology.
