Critical Environmental Security: Rethinking the Links Between Natural Resources and Political Violence

New Issues in Security #5

Edited by Matthew A. Schnurr and Larry A. Swatuk
June 2010
Available Online Only

This collection of papers emerged out of an international conference entitled 鈥淓nvironmental Violence and Conflict: Implications for Global Security,鈥� which brought together a wide array of scholars, policy experts and activists to evaluate the role of the non-human environment in precipitating and perpetuating violence. What follows is the preliminary result of our efforts to investigate the as-yet underappreciated ecological dimensions of conflict by exploring the intersections between natural resources and political upheaval. This collection aims to foster deeper engagement between the security and environmental communities, whose expertise are too often isolated from each other.
