This textbook offers a student-friendly survey of the global
politics of the environment through the prism of security studies.
This book is divided into three thematic sections. The first part
sets out the key theoretical and practical arguments for and
against bringing together environmental and security issues. The
second part examines why environmental issues have been framed by
some as 'national security' concerns in the context of the effects
of overpopulation, resource depletion, climate change and the role
of the military as both a cause and a solution to problems of
pollution and natural disasters. Finally, the third section
explores the case for treating the key issues of environmental
change as matters of human security. The chapters have been updated
to include the 2015 Paris Climate Change Accords, the Trump and
Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, and there is a new
chapter on environmental history. Overall, the book provides a
clear, systematic and thorough overview of an area of great
academic and 'real-world' political interest. This book will be
essential reading for students of environmental studies, critical
and human security, human geography, development studies, and
International Relations in general.
