dc.description.abstract | Within the major Australian cities - where the majority of people live - the immediacy and
potentially catastrophic nature of climate risk (i.e. storm surge, fire, drought) pose considerable
challenges to contemporary models of governance. In response to climate change conditions that
Spratt and Sutton (2008) describe as having entered the realm of a ‘code red’ emergency, there are
growing calls for a much stronger national security role. This paper draws on critical securitization
theory to explore the democratic dilemmas and potential of a greater national adaptation role for
Australian cities within a climate constrained future. The paper concludes by highlighting the
theoretical and practical implications of this approach to climate governance for Australian cities. | |
