The Secure and the Dispossessed shows how the military and corporations plan to maintain control in a world reshaped by climate change. With one eye on the scientific evidence and the other on their global assets, dystopian preparations by the powerful are already fueling militarized security responses to the unfolding climate crisis. The implications for social and environmental justice are disturbing. Adaptation to a climate-changed world is desperately needed, but it must protect the rights of all, not just provide security to the few. The authors unveil the dangerous new security agenda, and put forward inspiring alternatives that promise a just transition to a climate-changed world."--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aTransnational Institute series. 606 $aClimate change mitigation$xGovernment policy 606 $aNational security$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects 606 $aClimatic changes$xRisk management 615 0$aClimate change mitigation$xGovernment policy. 615 0$aNational security$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aClimatic changes$xRisk management. 676 $a363.73874 702 $aBuxton$b Nick 702 $aHayes$b Ben$f1976- 702 $aGeorge$b Susan 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808604203321 996 $aThe secure and the dispossessed$94056484 997 $aUNINA
