Description

As displacements in the Asia Pacific region continue to escalate, understanding the drivers behind these movements is essential. This region has historically faced more than half of the worlds natural disasters. In recent years, extreme weather-related events have driven a massive rise in human movement, displacing 19 million people in 2013 alone. This volume provides an innovative Asia-Pacific perspective on the global problem of forced displacement. It examines how people are pushed from their lands, homes, and livelihoods due to the combined effects of development, disasters, and environmental change. By drawing together theoretical and multidisciplinary perspectives, the text offers a deep look into the complex relationship between environmental shifts and human resettlement. This book serves as a vital resource for those studying the sociology and anthropology of displacement. It addresses the intensifying challenges of modern environmental change and the resulting impacts on communities across the Asia-Pacific region.
