Focusing on the interplay between climate change adaptation and social justice, the book explores how adaptive actions can overlook essential political and cultural dynamics. It introduces a resilience-transition-transformation framework to navigate the complexities of adaptation choices, emphasizing stability, incremental change, and transformative rights claims. Three in-depth case studies highlight diverse contexts of adaptation, ranging from organizational responses to urban governance and national policies, illustrating the multifaceted nature of addressing human vulnerability to climate risks.
