Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The question of how environmental and climate change affect migration and displacement is the subject of controversial debate not only among scientists, but also among politicians and the general public. In this context, "environmental refugees" are seen as an icon of approaching catastrophe. As the former chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Rajendra Pachauri puts it, they are "the human face of climate change." Embodied in human fates, "environmental refugees" make the consequences of environmental and climate change tangible and socially visible, beyond abstract indicators and projections.
Against the backdrop of this debate, the seminar provides an overview of the current state of discussion and enables participants to reflect critically on the complex relationship between the environment and migration. Seminar participants will also be enabled to understand the relationship between environment and migration not only as an empirical phenomenon, but also as a discursive and political one. The seminar will introduce conceptual approaches as well as discuss empirical findings from different regions.
