1. 31. Resilient Disaster Recovery: An exploration of operationalizing climate change adaptation measures in disaster recovery at the community level on Grand Bahama and Abaco

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

   Författare :Maya Fields; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Climate Change Adaptation; Resilience; Disaster Recovery; Decentralization; Community; Build Back Better; Law and Political Science;

   Sammanfattning : This explorative case-study examines the dynamics of operationalizing climate change adaptation (CCA) measures in the aftermath of climate change induced natural disaster at the community level in a low-lying coastal Nation State with fragile institutional capacity. It explores the roles and responsibilities different stakeholder groups take and identifies constraints and facilitators for operationalizing CCA measures in disaster recovery to ultimately explore leverage points or pathways towards greater integration of CCA measures in the phase of disaster recovery.

   Sammanfattning : In recent years, the drawbacks of parallel systems in Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) have been acknowledged in professional and academic communities, where the need for integration of the two fields in connection to development has been stressed. In this regard, the concept of resilience as an antithesis of risks has also been considered. LÄS MER

7. 35. Neoliberal ethics messing with sustainability? An analysis of the fundamental conflict between neoliberal ethics and sustainability measures and its consequences

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

   Sammanfattning : Despite all of the detrimental effects predicted in the event of non-action regarding climate change, a large number of people in the Global North are in a state of social inertia and openly criticise climate change mitigation (CCM) and climate change adaptation (CCA) measures. Most explanatory approaches of this phenomenon do not question the basic beliefs that our system is based on in their analysis. LÄS MER
