Building on his earlier work (Beck, [1986] 2005), Beck's (2009) "world risk society" thesis highlights the growing prominence of large-scale technological and industrial processes in modernity that has given rise to unstable global financial markets and climate change and associated threats for the broader public. For example, political and economic actors and institutions across the world are refashioning previous capital accumulation strategies and their spatial and ecological "fixes" through financial instruments and market-based mechanisms that seek to mitigate against and adapt people and places to environmental disasters, terrorist threats and the climate crisis (Castree and Christophers, 2015; Gotham and Greenberg, 2014; Knox-Hayes, 2013; Ouma et al., 2018) .	./cache/cord-030984-2mqn4ihm.txt	./txt/cord-030984-2mqn4ihm.txt
