Climate Change and the Nation State - Anatol Lieven - Bog

Climate Change and the Nation State is the first book to tie the issue of action against climate change to nationalism. Anatol Lieven argues that commitment to the future of the nation is the only way in which populations can be motivated to accept the sacrifices necessary to combat climate change. National security establishments should prioritize climate change rather than lesser threats from rival powers. Lieven supports the idea of a "Green New Deal" for both gaining public support for climate change action and building the national resilience, but argues that it should be recalibrated to appeal to national unity and solidarity.
