This topical Handbook explores the emergence of climate change as
an international security issue, the threats it poses, and the
political and academic debates it has prompted. Framing climate
change as a security issue, it explores the ways relevant actors,
states and international organizations have conceptualized climate
security and its associated threats. Theoretically sound and
empirically innovative, this Handbook explores the political
implications of linking climate change and security and tackles the
questions that are subsequently raised. Through a collection of
international case studies, expert contributors explore a diverse
range of issues emerging in the debate about climate change and
security, including the problem of migration, the impact on energy
security and the role of the military. Contributing to various
discourses, logics, practices and constructions of climate
security, the Handbook outlines how security language shapes and
transforms the way climate change is governed. Ultimately, it
identifies an emerging, broader reconceptualization of
international security in the Anthropocene. Displaying the
challenges that climate change poses in the context of existing
security practices and institutions, this Handbook will be vital
for policymakers looking to identify and understand threats to
formulate effective countermeasures. It will also prove useful to
students and scholars of security studies, international relations,
climate change and energy politics, environmental politics and
policy, and governance.
