Produktbeschreibung
The global green transition presents a unique opportunity for resource-rich Latin American nations to leverage natural assets to reduce problematic structural barriers while expanding social inclusion and strengthening responses to climate change.

This book examines why coordinated and proactive development strategies aligned with emerging global sustainability imperatives are essential for achieving these goals. It outlines the contours of an inclusive green development strategy, placing a green developmental state at the center and emphasizing the role of broadly defined industrial policies. Drawing on heterodox economics and international political economy, Eva Paus and Rafael Domínguez analyze how Latin American governments can respond to current economic and geopolitical pressures.

Systemic change is possible if states adopt environmental-developmental roles, pursue active non-alignment, and engage in more coordinated foreign policy efforts. Readers will gain insight into the political and economic conditions that shape the feasibility of inclusive green development. The resulting book breaks down the strategic choices available to governments seeking to integrate sustainability with long-term economic transformation and inclusion. It offers a grounded perspective on how policy direction, institutional capacity, and international positioning can be used to navigate the challenges of our times.
