Environmentalism and Democracy in the Age of Nationalism and Corporate Capitalism

Environmental commodification, trading and offsetting are business as usual approaches to environmental policy. There is also consensus across political divides about the need for economic growth. Many environmental NGOs have become apologists for corporate self-regulation, market mechanisms, carbon pricing/trading and biodiversity offsetting/banking, while themselves commercialising species 'protection' as eco-tourism. In this issue of Environmental Values the state and direction of the environmental movement are at the fore. D'Amato et al. contrast pragmatism with the need for revolutionary change and consider which will achieve social ecological transformation. Parry raises the issue of how animal activists should operate within an idealised deliberative democracy and what they could then legitimately justify doing to further their cause. Quist and Rinne are concerned with the challenges that disenfranchised groups face in building shared agendas and expressing themselves in their struggles to protect the environment and their ways of life. How natural resource extraction issues are framed by the media is the concern of Davies et al. Issues of power, inclusion and representation in the environmental movement are also raised in the paper by Fenney, which addresses the challenges specifically faced by disabled people. Societal change is an inherently value laden and political issue. Environmental policy is no more a win-win than any other policy; this journal issue shows how different polices change winners and losers.

民族主义和企业资本主义时代的环保主义和民主

环境商品化、贸易和抵消是环境政策的常规方法。对于经济增长的必要性,政治分歧也存在共识。许多环保非政府组织已成为企业自律、市场机制、碳定价/交易和生物多样性抵消/银行业务的辩护者,同时他们自己将物种“保护”商业化为生态旅游。在本期《环境价值》中,环境运动的状态和方向处于最前沿。达马托等人。将实用主义与革命性变革的需要进行对比,并考虑哪种将实现社会生态转型。帕里提出了一个问题,即动物活动家应该如何在理想化的协商民主中运作,以及他们可以合法地证明为促进他们的事业而做的事情是合理的。Quist 和 Rinne 关注被剥夺权利的群体在建立共同议程和在保护环境和生活方式的斗争中表达自己的挑战。媒体如何报道自然资源开采问题是 Davies 等人关注的问题。芬尼 (Fenney) 的论文还提出了环保运动中的权力、包容性和代表性问题,该论文解决了残疾人面临的具体挑战。社会变革本质上是一个充满价值的政治问题。环境政策并不比任何其他政策更能实现双赢;
