Eco-governmentality

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ecogovernmentality (also eco-governmentality , ecological governmentality or occasionally environmentalism ) is a term used in political ecology .

The term describes the application of Foucault's concepts of bio-power and governmentality to the area of social interactions with the natural world and extends Foucault's genealogical investigation of the state to include ecological rationalities and government technologies.

The term was coined by a small group of theorists around Timothy Luke, Eric Darier and Paul Rutherford from the mid-1990s. The literature on eco-governmentality grew in response to the supposed lack of Foucaultian analysis of environmental awareness and in environmental studies.
