This new book explains why the international community has responded with a sense of fatalistic passivity to climate change.
It presents a distinct critique of realism through the study of this topic, commonly overlooked in international relations. The author argues that the realist view rests on a dangerous contradiction; far from delivering security it serves to limit the way we think about the new generation of risks we face. The book also provides a detailed case study evaluating US climate politics under the Clinton and Bush administrations.
Dr Mark J. Lacy is a lecturer in the Department of Politics and International Relations at Lancaster University, UK.
