Climate Change and the Nation State
Arguments for national autonomy in confronting environmental crisis

“CLIMATE change will be a battle between uncontrolled capitalism and the planet,” Anatol Lieven declares in his conclusion to this thought-provoking book. In his view, it is far more of a threat to the world’s great powers than they are to each other.

Yet, while the 2008 National Security Strategy of the United Kingdom states that climate change is [[{"fid":"24893","view_mode":"inlineright","fields":{"format":"inlineright","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false},"link_text":null,"type":"media","field_deltas":{"1":{"format":"inlineright","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false}},"attributes":{"class":"media-element file-inlineright","data-delta":"1"}}]]“potentially the greatest challenge to global stability and security and therefore to national security,”nothing has been done.

Instead the security agenda and expenditure on it have been frittered away on traditional challenges such as the war in Afghanistan which, by 2008, was already effectively lost and from which Britain achieved nothing.
