Climate Change Solutions And Environmental Migration The Injustice Of Maladaptation And The Gendered 'Silent Offset' Economy | Environment &

This book lifts the taboo on maladaptation a different driver of environmentally induced migration which shines a light on the negative consequences arising from the solutions to climate change adaptation and mitigation policies. Through a systematic analysis and critique of existing mitigation and adaptation polices under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and international development community and supplemented by a small empirical study in Indonesia this book catalogues how maladaptation is manufactured under existing climate change solutions. It posits that customary communities in general- and women in particular- are disproportionately affected by the dominant market-driven logics that underscore current climate change solutions adopted by the UNFCCC. The injustice of maladaptation is highlighted as multi-faceted and explored using political economic social and ecological lenses and the concept of environmental reintegration is also explored as a possible solution to this issue. Further possibilities are then presented in the Afterword as a combination of what the new (post-neoliberalism) conjuncture could potentially look like. This volume will be of great interest to students scholars and practitioners of climate change environmental policy environmental migration and displacement development studies I/NGOs and civil society actors and activists more broadly. |Climate Change Solutions and Environmental Migration The Injustice of Maladaptation and the Gendered 'Silent Offset' Economy | Environment &
