Climate, Environmental Hazards and Migration in Bangladesh (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book traces the linkages between climate and environment-related hazards and migration, and attempts to dispel some popular myths. While the book takes Bangladesh as a case study, it will address the international debate over the linkages between climate, environment and migration, and highlight its conceptual and empirical dimensions. It probes how hazards often snowball into disasters and push out people living on the margins of the country's political economy. It also examines how people address these shocks and stresses by adjusting their habitats and livelihoods to suit the changed scenarios, by staying or moving.
