Introduction: Small Island Developing States: Vulnerability and resilience under climate change -- Part I - Concepts and Dimensions -- States of 'Knowing': Uncertainty, Ambiguity and Risk in SIDS Climate Change Impacts -- Climate and development research in small island developing states: the benefits of a political ecology approach -- Part II - Sectors -- Community participation, situated knowledge and climate change (mal)adaptation in rural island communities: evidence from artificial shoreline-protection structures in Fiji -- Widening the Scope of Disaster Preparedness in Caribbean SIDS: Building Resilience through Improving Climate Information -- Sustainable land use systems in natural resource policies: the role of agroforestry in the Rio conventions for Small Island Developing States -- Economic Impacts of Climate Change on Agriculture: Insights from the Small Island Economy of Mauritius -- The Early Development of the Small Island Developing States' Climate Governance: A Disproportionate Impact on UN Climate Negotiations -- Social and Economic Vulnerability to Climate Change: A Gender Dimension for Indian Ocean Islands -- Vulnerability of Jamaica's South Coast Fishing Communities to Coastal Erosion and Flooding -- Fisheries sector vulnerabilities to climate change in Small Island Developing States -- Part III - Places -- Vulnerabilities to Climate Change and Enhancing Resilience in Caribbean Small Island Developing States: A Spatial Planning Framework -- Human Mobility and Disasters in Pacific and Caribbean Small Island Developing States (SIDS) -- Climate change and the case of Grenada's blue growth plan: Using the SDGs to propose a policy planning framework for SIDS's sustainable development -- Identifying climate change vulnerability and adaptation challenges in the Caribbean SIDS - an urban morphological approach -- The Contentious Policies of Place and Space: the Maldives, Overpopulation, and Climate Concerns -- Coral Islands, Climate Change and Distant Destinies? The View from Kiribati.

This book explores how vulnerable and resilient communities from SIDS are affected by climate change; proposes and, where possible, evaluates adaptation activities; identifies factors capable of enhancing or inhibiting SIDS people's long-term ability to deal with climate change; and critiques the discourses, vocabularies, and constructions around SIDS dealing with climate change. The contributions, written by well-established scholars, as well as emerging authors and practitioners, in the field, include conceptual papers, coherent methodological approaches, and case studies from the communities based in the Caribbean Sea and the Indian, Atlantic, and Pacific Oceans. In their introduction, the editors contextualise the book within the current literature. They emphasise the importance of stronger links between climate change science and policy in SIDS, both to increase effectiveness of policy and also boost scholarly enquiry in the context of whose communities are often excluded by mainstream research. This book is timely and appropriate, given the recent commission by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of a Special Report that aims at addressing vulnerabilities, "especially in islands and coastal areas, as well as the adaptation and policy development opportunities" following the Paris Agreement. Coupled with this, there is also the need to support the policy community with further scientific evidence on climate change-related issues in SIDS, accompanying the first years of implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
