3. 2. Climate Change, Disappearing Islands and thePerception of Climate Justice : A Content Analysis of the Perception of Climate Justice from thePerspective of Small Island States

   Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

   Författare :Amanda Nilsson; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Small island states; climate change; climate in justice; colonialism; climate migration; adaptation and mitigation strategies; sea-level rise; disappearing islands; solidarity;

   Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis was to establish how, in an emerging era of sinking islands andincreasing environmental degradation, ideas concerning climate justice have been developedin pacific small island states. These ideas have been analysed from a framework of southernand justice theory and, hence, been put in comparison to the global framework of climatejustice and the notion that sovereign states, no matter location or historical circumstances, areleft alone to deal with the worst effects of climate change.
