Abstract

Research on climate and migration interactions has greatly evolved from environmentally deterministic explanations to more sophisticated and complex accounts of human (im)mobilities in a changing climate. Despite acknowledging gender and social inequalities as key factors shaping vulnerability and resilience, the multi-scalar power relations influencing human (im)mobility in the context of climate change have been underestimated. This paper argues that a feminist political ecology of migration can enhance our understanding of the gender and social inequities embedded in the climate-migration nexus by conceptualizing power relations across different scales in our world economy. Through a critical review of the literature, this paper highlights the ways in which a feminist political ecology approach can help unpack the power differentials that shape climate and migration interactions. The paper concludes that a more nuanced understanding of power relations across different scales is crucial for both advancing the conceptual understanding of the complex nexus between climate, migration, and inequality, and addressing the root causes of these challenges.

在不断变化的气候中建立女权主义移民政治生态学
关于气候与移民互动关系的研究已从环境决定论的解释发展到对气候变化中人类(不)流动性的更为复杂的阐述。尽管承认性别和社会不平等是影响脆弱性和复原力的关键因素,但气候变化背景下影响人类(不)流动性的多层面权力关系却被低估了。本文认为,女性主义移民政治生态学可以通过概念化世界经济中不同尺度的权力关系,加深我们对气候-移民关系中蕴含的性别和社会不平等的理解。通过对文献的批判性回顾,本文强调了女权主义政治生态学方法可帮助解读形成气候与移民互动的权力差异的方式。本文的结论是,更细致地理解不同尺度的权力关系,对于推进从概念上理解气候、移民和不平等之间的复杂关系,以及解决这些挑战的根本原因都至关重要。
