GOV 263 INT'L POLITICS OF CLIMATE CHNG

Starting with the science and projected impacts, we will consider climate change: the impact on the global south and adaptation measures; the projected flood of climate refugees and their legal status; food and agriculture implications; comparative policy responses; international treaty efforts and existing international law; potential for intensification of violent conflict; and the role of activism in promoting governmental action. While the course is interdisciplinary, there is a dominant focus on comparative policy responses and international politics.
