Synopsis
This book examines the process of climate securitization within the United States and Australian political-military sector between 2003 - 2013. Drawing on established securitization frameworks ("Copenhagen" and "Paris" Schools), the author uses a combination of qualitative and quantitative techniques to systematically analyze more than 3,500 official publications from the US and Australian political-military sector. The results offers a rare insight into how each military framed climate change as a security threat and formulated their own unique institutional responses within a heavily politicized context. The book consists of eight chapters divided into four parts; focusing on: perspectives/methodological insights; empirical case studies; case study comparison and concluding observations.
