| 520 | 1 | _aThis book represents an important contribution to the study of global environmental politics and indeed international political economy. Understanding the global politics of access to and control over genetic resources through an historical materialist approach represents an innovative and welcome development." Peter Newell, Professor of Development Studies, University of East Anglia, UK 'A compelling and insightful book on conflicts over genetics, intellectual property rights, and the future of agriculture. A must read for anyone concerned with the erosion of genetic diversity and how it has become a flash point for power struggles between the global North and South." Michael Goldman, Department of Sociology, University of Minnesota, USA. Author of Imperial Nature: The World Bank and Struggles for Social Justice in the Age of Globalization 'Contested terrains is one of the most insightful works on "environmental issues" that I have seen in recent years. The contributors foreground a nuanced view of power relations among states, corporations, NGOs and others, acting in a political economy that is not state-centric, on the one hand, yet not a "global society," on the other. As a result, we gain a much clearer understanding of the interplay between discursive and material resources and the way in which the "level playing field" is only level, at best, on average. This is a book that demands to be read. Now! Ronnie D. Lipschutz, Department of Politics, University of California, Santa Cruz, USA This is a path-breaking study advancing the conceptualization of global governance. The authors undertake the long overdue project of adapting the insights of state theory to new phenomena of international rule-making. This allows them to go beyond state-centric approaches in International Relations and make visible the interests of social forces in global environmental regulations... The result is a thoroughly satisfying book that should be required reading in all advanced courses on international organization and global governance." | |
