Ecological Modernization:

• What is Ecological Modernization and how does it work?
  • How can this be done in an opportunistic way?
  • Can we adapt the current system to specifications of EcologicalModernization?
    • Think about this in terms in of markets, taxes, incentives, and international law/global accords?

¡  Is this a possible answer for developing states?

• Can this allow them to not repeat the mistakes of the developedworld?

• How does this reinforce the concept of Ecocentrism that we discussed in the beginning of the semester?
• Do we have time to Green the Liberal State, given the nature of democratic politics?
• Is Populism an obstacle, or can it too be manipulated to help green the state?
  • Where might this be hard, and where might this be easier?
