Under what circumstances might climate change lead to negative security outcomes? Over the past fifteen years, a rapidly growing applied field and research community on climate security has emerged. While much progress has been made, we still don't have a clear understanding of why climate change might lead to violent conflict or humanitarian emergencies in some places and not others. Busby develops a novel argument - based on the combination of state capacity, political exclusion, and international assistance - to explain why climate leads to especially bad security outcomes in some places but not others. This argument is then demonstrated through application to case studies from sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia. This book will provide an informative resource for students and scholars of international relations and environmental studies, especially those working on security, conflict and climate change, on the emergent practice and study of this topic, and identifies where policy and research should be headed.

Busby, Joshua W.: - Joshua Busby is author of numerous studies on climate change, national security, and energy policy that have been published by peer-reviewed academic outlets and various think tanks. He was a leading researcher on two multi-million dollar grants on climate and security from the US Department of Defense under its Minerva Initiative and has consulted on the topic for international organizations and think tanks.
