Climate Change and Conflict in the Pacific - Challenges and Responses

Shibata, Carroll and Boege address the various dimensions of the climate change–conflict nexus and shed light on the overwhelming challenges of climate change in the Pacific Islands region. This book highlights the multidimensionality of the problems: political, technical, material, and emotional and psychological. Written by experts in the field, the chapters highlight the centrality and importance of opening up a dialogue between researchers involved in the large-scale global modelling of climate change and its impacts. Both scholars and civil society actors come together in sharing about the complexities of local contexts and the conflict-driving potential of climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies on the ground, which fuses locally-focused Pacific approaches with broader international debates in the climate change–security research community. Through various accounts and perspectives, current gaps in knowledge are bridged, contributing to the development of more grounded, conflict-sensitive climate change policies, strategies, governance and adaptation measures in the Pacific region. An important resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and civil society actors interested in the multi-faceted issues of climate change in the Pacific.
