Climate Change and Security in the Mediterranean: Exploring the Nexus, Unpacking International Policy Responses
Questo volume esamina la relazione multidimensionale tra cambiamento climatico e sicurezza negli stati e nelle società del bacino del Mediterraneo, sottolineando le principali sfide sociali, politiche ed economiche dell’attuale emergenza climatica e delineando possibili vie di cooperazione per mitigarne gli effetti più negativi. Parte di un più ampio programma di ricerca e impegno sul clima e l’ambiente intrapreso dal New-Med Research Network dal 2020, i singoli capitoli, scritti da eminenti scienziati, accademici e ricercatori, affrontano diverse dimensioni del nesso tra cambiamento climatico e sicurezza nel Mediterraneo, valutandone le implicazioni sulla resilienza statale e sociale, il futuro degli ecosistemi viventi e la stabilità dei contratti sociali, nonché l’urgente necessità di rafforzare un’autentica collaborazione intramediterranea per far fronte all’emergenza climatica e promuovere un’equa condivisione dei rischi e degli oneri associati con la transizione verso l’energia “verde”.
