Flooding has forced human migration and displacement in Egypt, Iran, and Tunisia in 2020, while wildfires have spread in Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey. The author, a specialist in the MENA region, unpacks the implications of several developments that have triggered large-scale migration from rural to urban areas in the Middle East, and North Africa, and threaten to destabilize the region. These include, among other things, widespread famine, population displacement, and the growing decline of agricultural productivity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDigging deep into key terminology and frameworks such as the 1951 Refugee Convention, climate-human rights nexus, climate-related protest, environmental politics, green investment, and climate governance, the author demonstrates how human rights and climate change are inextricably intertwined and provides additional context to support student learning. This book examines the environmental threats and history of individual countries, including a survey of how the issues of climate change, forced migration, and human rights interface with socioeconomic, political, and legal perspectives.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMAHMOOD MONSHIPOURI is Professor of International Relations at San Francisco State University, USA, and Lecturer at the University of California, Berkeley, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 328\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.88 x 8.99 x 5.99 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 05, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53176140726569,"sku":"9798216376576","price":75.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/4960\/5929\/files\/fuYfN3Zlpz9798216376576.webp?v=1778820633","url":"https:\/\/www.thescholarssourcebookstore.co\/products\/climate-change-environmental-refugees-and-human-rights-in-the-middle-east-paperback","provider":"The Scholar's Source","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
