Borders, Bodies, and Security: Climate Change and Global Inequality
Sat, August 8, 2:00 to 3:30pm, TBASession Submission Type: Paper Session (90 minute)
Description
As climate disruptions accelerate, international security is increasingly entangled with environmental migration, resource scarcity, and militarized borders. We invite submissions that explore how inequality—across gender, race, class, and nation—structures who is protected and who is exposed in this emerging security landscape. Topics might include securitization of climate refugees, racial profiling, health disparities in disaster zones, or data-driven border surveillance systems. Contributions that propose solutions—legal, technological, or grassroots—to mitigate these inequities will be prioritized. We particularly welcome interdisciplinary work that bridges environmental sociology, international relations, and human rights research.
