Summary

This joint publication by the Maritime Policy & Strategy Research Center (HMS) and the Konrad Adenauer Foundation (KAS) examines how environmental challenges in the Eastern Mediterranean could catalyze either conflict or cooperation in the region. The chapters discuss the theoretical challenge of climate change to the existing models, the concepts of regional cooperation and conflict, the devastation created by the Syrian civil war, monitoring pollution in the Aegean and Ionian seas, challenges at the Limassol Bay that initiated government-academic cooperation, and European actors' actions facing climate change in the Eastern Mediterranean. The articles emphasize the need for cooperation at different levels - intranational, regional, and international - to cope with environmental challenges.
