"Under what conditions does climate change potentially lead to negative security outcomes? In brief, this book argues that climate change is most likely to trigger conflict and humanitarian emergencies in countries that have (1) weak state capacity, (2) exclusive political institutions, and (3) when international assistance is blocked or delivered unevenly. Where state capacity reflects a government's ability to prepare for climate shocks and help people in times of need, inclusive political institutions capture their willingness to help all or merely some of their citizens. International assistance can partially compensate for weak state capacity. Countries that have stronger state capacity, more political inclusion, and which can tap international assistance to help them are less likely to experience violence or humanitarian emergencies. The book uses paired cases of countries (Somalia and Ethiopia, Syria and Lebanon, and Myanmar, Bangladesh, and India) that experienced similar environmental exposure but different security outcomes to understand why climate hazards lead to negative security outcomes in some situations but not others"--

"The Routledge Companion to Humanitarian Action addresses the political, ethical, legal and practical issues which influence reactions to humanitarian crisis. It does so by exploring the daily dilemmas faced by a range of actors, including policy makers, aid workers, the private sector and the beneficiaries of aid, and by challenging common perceptions regarding humanitarian crisis and the policies put in place to address these. Through such explorations, it provides practitioners and scholars with the knowledge needed to both understand and improve upon current forms of humanitarian action. The Companion will be of use to those interested a range of humanitarian programmes ranging from emergency medical assistance, military interventions, managing refugee flows and the implementation of international humanitarian law. As opposed to addressing specific programmes, it explores five themes that are central to understanding and engaging in all modes of humanitarian action. The first section explores varying interpretations of humanitarianism, including critical historical and political-economic explanations as well as more practice based explorations focused on notions needs assessments and evaluation. Following this, readers will be exposed to the latest debates on a range of humanitarian principles including neutrality and sovereignty, before exploring the key issues faced by the main actors involved in humanitarian crisis (from international NGOs to local community based organizations). The final two sections address what are seen as key dilemmas in regards to humanitarian action and emerging trends in the humanitarian system, including the increasing role of social media in responding to crises"--
