Environment Change and Related Risks 3700-ISSC-ECRR-OG
The aim of the course is to present contemporary relationships between the natural environment and population migrations. Students learn how in various geographical areas, depending on the conditions of the natural environment, the economic and political situation of the country and cultural conditions, the migration behavior of the population is shaped differently in the face of such phenomena as: natural hazards, construction of large infrastructure investments, climate changes (including climate variability), degradation of the natural environment and the limitations of human activity. All this will be used to better understand the complexity of processes that shape modern population movements, including the so-called migration crisis. Moreover, students will learn how, adaptive and mitigating behaviors of people affected by environmental changes are shaped under different social, economic, demographic and political factors. Further, circumstance of conflicts triggered by environmental change or limited access to resources will be studied. Finally, issues related to legal challenges regarding joint responsibility for the effects of environmental changes will also be discussed.
The course will take both lecture and seminar character: the basic knowledge on environmental changes, their roots and related risks will be presented during lectures. Understanding of complexity of relations with other political, economic, demographic and social factors will be analyzed through discussions and close engagement with readings and other sources. It will carry an interdisciplinary character and encompass social anthropology, geography, political sciences, and sociology. It is designed for students interesting in developing a critical understanding of the reality we live in and willing to know whether there are any alternatives to it.
