Dear Colleagues, Please join us for the next session of the Environmental Politics and Governance Network's "Climate Policy Roundtable" on Thursday, October 30th at 12pm EST.
The topic for the next conversation is: "*The Politics of Abundance"* *You will need to register in advance here * https://brown.zoom.us/meeting/register/wnUh_DftRpa6EyJutSdReA in order to receive the Zoom link. We plan to discuss the following questions: - *Abundance* aims to provide a lens on the politics of "chosen scarcity." Does it get the diagnosis right? Is America overregulated and insufficiently innovative? To what extent is this a barrier to the transition to a clean energy economy? - Klein and Thompson reject the ideas of degrowth and fail to discuss wealth redistribution. Do you agree with their analysis? - What political conditions would be necessary to implement an *Abundance *agenda? In what ways could this agenda respond to right wing populism? - Klein and Thompson view the environmental movement as both a correction and an overcorrection (216). Does the environmental movement need to reexamine its strategy in light of this analysis? We hope that you will be able to attend.
