Can climate nationalism save us?
Can climate nationalism save us?

Summary/Abstract: Anatol Lieven brings considerable experience in foreign affairs and journalism to the topic of climate change and responses to the risks and dangers that a changing earth climate demands of humans and human institutions. In his book Climate Change and the Nation State, he argues that focusing on the interests of nations is a way out of inaction on climate change: a strong civic nationalism is necessary and must rely on the sovereign territorial state for meaningful action on climate change. He further argues that the imagined community that makes up a nation can create the spatiotemporal political space that can envision and ‘demand the sacrifices necessary to combat climate change’ (p. xx).
