Readers are provided a picture of how these programs could look, how they would work, what could trigger them, and the challenges in execution. The book analyses in detail one plausible approach to a crucial issue - an approach built upon knowledge of climate science and on proven and demonstrated mitigation measures. The book is meshed with a social and political analysis that draws upon narratives of mobilisations during the war to meet a transnational threat, while also addressing the shortcomings of the analogy and its strategies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book will be of great interest to scholars, students, and practitioners of public policy, climate policy, energy policy, international relations, and strategic studies. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46930675499159,"sku":"9780815364542","price":4233.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780815364542.webp?v=1771608321","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/strategies-for-rapid-climate-mitigation-wartime-mobilisation-as-a-model-for-action-9780815364542","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
