Abstract
⺠I analyze a set of influential texts on climate-induced migration. ⺠I employ poststructuralist discourse theory and political ecology. ⺠I highlight how competing discourses converge onto apocalyptic narratives. ⺠Such convergence, centered on 'climate refugees', facilitates depoliticization. ⺠I argue that such narratives are detrimental to radical/emancipatory climate politics.
