“…Environmental Peacebuilding Theory, advocated by Saleem H. Ali, explores the potential of environmental cooperation in fostering peace and resolving conflicts, including those related to transboundary water management (Ali, 2021). This theory posits that shared environmental interests, such as access to clean water and ecosystem protection, can serve as catalysts for cooperation and reconciliation among conflicting parties.…”

“…This theory posits that shared environmental interests, such as access to clean water and ecosystem protection, can serve as catalysts for cooperation and reconciliation among conflicting parties. By integrating environmental considerations into peacebuilding efforts, stakeholders can address root causes of conflict and promote cross-border cooperation for sustainable water management (Ali, 2021).…”

Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze cross-border water management in transboundary river conflicts in Palestine. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Research on cross-border water management in transboundary river conflicts stresses cooperation, trust-building, and integrated approaches for sustainable solutions. Equitable resource allocation, effective communication among riparian states, and international legal frameworks play vital roles in resolving disputes. Adaptive governance mechanisms are crucial for addressing changing hydrological conditions and political dynamics. Collaborative efforts are essential for managing transboundary river conflicts effectively. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Hydro-hegemony theory, institutional collective action (ICA) theory & environmental peacebuilding theory may be used to anchor future studies on cross-border water management in transboundary river conflicts in Palestine. Implementing integrated water resources management (IWRM) approaches that involve stakeholders from all riparian countries can enhance practical efforts to address transboundary river conflicts. Developing robust legal and institutional frameworks at both national and international levels is crucial for resolving transboundary river conflicts and promoting cooperation.

“…In another related argument, the logic of 'greening security' is also used to analyse the 'positive transformative role' of the military, 'given the enormous resource base of military establishments and continuing public investment in militaries worldwide' in the realm of environmental peacebuilding (Ali and Pincus 2018). This logic, on the one hand, challenges the climate-conflict nexus, and on the other hand, it attempts to reinvent the military's function as an instrument of peacebuilding through environmental means, which is closely related to environmentalization and climatization.…”

‘Climatizing’ military strategy? A case study of the Indian armed forces

Climate change is increasingly shaping security narratives, including military strategy. While considering climate change a security issue, the military's role in this discourse and praxis becomes critical as a security actor. However, the interrelationships between climate change, security and the military are conceived and approached by different states diversely. Within different states, this triangular relationship is guided by processes with varied practical/policy implications. While 'securitization' has generally been used to explain climate security, other processes such as 'climatization' have assumed significance, wherein security practices are climatized. The Indian military too has been engaging with security implications of climate change, but by using approaches distinct from Western states, which have been the usual focus in such analyses. In this paper, the framework of climatization is used to analyse the triangular relationship, using the case study of the Indian military-by categorizing climatizing moves as symbolic, strategic, precautionary and transformative.
