    Author : Giovanni Bettini; LUCSUS; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; climate change; migration; climate security; adaptation; resilience; post-politics;

    Abstract : This work seeks to de-naturalise climate-induced migration (CM). Combining political ecology and post-foundational theories, I read CM as a construct that reifies a series of phenomena into an issue to be researched and governed. READ MORE

  2. 2. Norm Acceptance in the International Community : A study of disaster risk reduction and climate-induced migration
