Double Exposure presents a new framework for exploring the interactions between global environmental change and globalization. Drawing upon a range of case studies, the book reveals how these interactions may increase inequalities, exacerbate vulnerabilities, and undermine efforts to achieve sustainability. The double exposure framework also reveals positive openings for responding to change.
