Rethinking the Green State - Bog

This book advances thinking on how to understand the emergence of a green state in the context of climate and sustainability transitions. The book theorizes the green state from political theory, feminist theory, post-structuralism, governance and institutional theory. It empirically examines the performance of states and institutional responses to the sustainable and climate transitions in the European and Nordic context in particular. It critically explores different principles guiding the emergence of the green state and for example its linkages to the welfare state.
