Enduring Erosions

More about the book

Focusing on the Sundarbans, Arne Harms explores the lived experiences of islanders facing environmental challenges like flooding and land loss. He critiques the simplistic view of "climate refugees," arguing that these communities are not merely victims of climate change but are shaped by historical and political contexts. By examining both past and present struggles, the book offers insights into the broader implications of rising sea levels for densely populated coastal regions in Asia, highlighting resilience amid ongoing transformation.
