Spatialities of Displacement in Times of Climate Change
From the US-Mexico border to coastal Colombia, from Nigeria to Bangladesh, scholarship on displacement and climate has grown in recent years, reframing climate change not as the sole driver of migration but as part of a complex matrix of economic, social, and political forces. Against this backdrop, this book addresses the climate–space–displacement nexus by foregrounding spatial imaginaries that inspire hopeful futures. Bringing together interdisciplinary contributions from geography, planning, anthropology, sociology, and architecture, it explores resistant and emerging spatialities of displacement. Structured around three sections―Shifting Grounds, Erratic Waters, and Lines of Flight―the volume offers transversal lenses across contexts, concluding with a visual analytical synthesis that invites reflection on expanded possibilities of climate-related displacement spatialities.
