the secure and the dispossessed
Book •
The Secure and the Dispossessed examines how responses to climate change can exacerbate existing inequalities and injustices, particularly in the context of security and migration.
It analyzes the ways in which climate change is framed as a security threat, leading to increased militarization, border control, and surveillance measures that disproportionately affect marginalized communities.
Nick Buxton highlights the need for climate policies that prioritize social justice and address the root causes of vulnerability and displacement.
The book argues for a shift away from securitized approaches to climate change towards solutions that promote resilience, equity, and human rights.
The Secure and the Dispossessed calls for a more inclusive and democratic approach to climate governance.
