Abstract

This chapter examines the constraints placed on political and environmental action by extractive states. Building on our critical assessment of populism in Chapter 2, we acknowledge populism is a backlash to social inequality that has been justified by sedimented layers of political exclusion. However, in a departure from the critical explanations of populism, we develop an analytical framework that highlights the powerful limits that the extractive state imposes on opportunities to breathe new life into stagnant political institutions and support sustained environmental action.
