| Summary/Abstract |
The climate change issue evolved as a significant policy priority within the China’s political establishment. The major factor that determines Beijing’s climate policy is the prevailing and potential climate change impact on the country’s economic development. As economic development is the foremost, pre-existing and abiding political concern, political leaders construct the climate change impact as a major threat to the country’s economic prosperity. Thus, political leaders’ overriding priority is to protect economic development—a referent object—from the perils of climate change. However, the interplay of climate threat and economic development drives political leaders to embrace security institution and develop military mind set to contend with climate-led development policies that trigger the securitisation of the development process in China. Employing the discourse analysis method, this paper examines the securitisation of development debate in China, especially at the domestic level, from the standpoint of the securitisation theory.

| Summary/Abstract |
Climate change issue has evolved as a central policy of the Government of India. The crux of the policy is centered on the economic development. Internationally, India has been consistently resisting the developed country’s climate policy as the policy might threaten New Delhi’s economic development prospect. However, the recent evidence of climate change threat to the economic development compelled political leaders to design the domestic climate policy—the National Action Plan on Climate Change—which is consistent with the country’s economic development. Considering the global climate diplomacy, this paper examines the evolution of India’s domestic climate change-development discourse and how climate change has been constructed as a major threat at the highest political level that securitises the country’s economic development. The threat discourse is explained from the standpoint of the securitisation theory to explore three core constituents of India’s domestic climate policy: the referent object, securitising actors and the audience.

| Summary/Abstract |

He also links the theory of securitisation with the climate change discourse in India and explicates the climate change linkage with economic and military security.
