"The objective of the volume is to raise the primary questions of unequal effects of climate change and of climate action, with the goal of bringing these questions into ongoing scholarly and policy debates on climate change in India. It calls for moving beyond the existing debates about international versus domestic climate justice to examine the complex ways in which international and subnational policies, programs, and resource mobilizations intersect to shape the outcomes of climate action and climate justice"-- Provided by publisher.
