Climate change as an international reality attracted different scientific disciplines to study and to evaluate its consequences. Sociology is one of these sciences concerned with climate change since it brough about issues of resource depletion and contestation of social stability. Sociologists found that climate change, as a problem, is interconnected with biophysical, economic, political, and socio-cultural factors. Therefore, it must be dealt with in an interdisciplinary approach.
This book studies the important social, cultural, and political factors that affect the living conditions of the people in their societies in the hazardous consequences of climate change. The studies contained in this book provide decision makers with applicable solutions to the problems that may face their societies and destabilize their structures.
