Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The potential for climate change to cause vast human movement is a major global issue. Dominant approaches to climate-related migration take mobility as the starting point, exploring legal frameworks that tend to provide protection for migrants only after they move and overlooking measures that could help avoid forced movement in the first place. In contrast, Climate Change, Human Rights, and Adaptive Mobility provides a new conceptual and legal approach tohuman mobility in the context of climate change, one that seeks to compel and shape more proactive, anticipatory action.The author anchors her arguments in the international climatechange regime, turning to obligations on adaptation found in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Paris Agreement. These obligations, though understudied and underutilized, have the potential to be a powerful legal tool. The book therefore seeks to lend them concrete legal meaning. It draws on international climate change and human rights law to weave together doctrinal analysis that considers treaty interpretation, regime interaction, and principles ofenvironmental law with case studies in Bangladesh, the Pacific Islands, and the Sahel.At its core, the book argues that adaptation obligations require states to take measures to addressforeseeable risks and ensure human rights. It further argues that developed countries that have contributed most to climate change have legal duties to support others in adapting to its effects, adding a collective dimension to the problem of climate change and mobility.This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence.
