environmental political theory
Definition
- Viewed from one perspective, perhaps the most curious thing about environmental political theory (EPT) is that it should exist at all. Environmental concerns—climate change, species and forest destruction, toxic pollution, and so forth—are characteristically viewed as discrete interests or preferences to be weighed against others in the making of policy by liberal pluralist states.
