Brian Elliott persuasively argues that climate change is not a
natural phenomenon but a political phenomenon: a symptom of
neoliberal governance. This helps us to understand how, across
wealthy liberal democracies, environmental concern has increasingly
been framed as a consumer responsibility issue rather than as a
matter of structural social-political transformation. Thinking of a
world truly beyond climate change requires us to reimagine the
state beyond its current neoliberal configuration. Elliott argues
that, in order to achieve this, environmental politics in the west
needs to renew the Marxist challenge to the global market's benign
production of social utility and construct a new non-apocalyptic
politics of nature.
