Description

"This book analyses the political economy of US climate policy, explaining how the drive to promote accumulation in green markets has been translated under conditions of American neoliberalism, where the state struggles to find a stable and legitimate role in the economy, and where environmental and industrial policy are contentious topics. It conceptualizes US climate policy not as environmental policy (with regulation as its primary objective), but as innovation policy (with capital accumulation and market domination as its main objective). It argues that US climate policy must be understood in the context of the government's broader strategy to dominate and monopolize high-tech markets." --
