Elaine Kelly

Dwelling in the Age of Climate Change (eBook, ePUB)

The Ethics of Adaptation

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Currently, adaptation policy for climate change prioritises economic and technological dimensions of governance and action. Now, Elaine Kelly brings continental theory into the conversation to explore the ethical dilemmas stemming from emerging global political crises of migration, displacement and communal relocation related to climate change. She argues that, in the era of anthropocentric climate change, an 'ethos of dwelling' must underpin adaptation practices.
