Climate Change and Poverty: A New Agenda for Developed Nations
Autor Tony Fitzpatricken Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 sep 2014
Arguably the most important challenge facing the world in the twenty-first century is climate change, which will affect global issues of poverty and social exclusion such as food, fuel, housing, transportation, and air pollution. In Climate Change and Poverty, Tony Fitzpatrick offers a timely new “ecosocial” way to think about the conjunction of climate change and poverty, analyzing the causes, symptoms, and possible solutions to poverty and establishing a cross-national, multidisciplinary approach that will be of use to scholars, researchers, and policy makers alike.

Recenzii
"This is an important book that explores the critical interaction between social policy and climate."
“Fitzpatrick’s claim in this book is that climate change turns the tackling of poverty into a new agenda, for developed countries as well as for developing ones, because in developed countries such as the United Kingdom climate change exacerbates poverty and poverty has an impact on climate change.”
