  • Summary

    This chapter shifts the focus to the impact of disciplinary theories and practices in international relations and international law on climate migrants, peoples displaced through climate change and environmental causes. In contrast to transnational business corporations who are empowered by domestic and transnational laws, climate migrants are disempowered by laws that deny them protection as refugees from the vicissitudes of climate change and environmental decay. Instead, climate migrants are injected into circuits of transnational value chains as commodified, migrant labour in the creation of a new precariat and proletariat under the transformation of transnational labour relations.
