We explore climate politics through a sustainability lens, focusing on the dynamics of capitalism and global development to explore the limits of this lens, particularly questions of culture and everyday life, the role of the state, and international cooperation. This seminar will discuss the dynamics of climate change politics while focusing on the interaction of democracy, populism, rising autocracy, and what sustainability politics needs to implement. The course is organized sequentially to get you to think about three distinct questions about climate change politics and sustainability: the political-economic origins of climate change, the political and sustainability responses to climate change, and the sort of transformational sustainability and politics that thinking about the future in a climate-changed world entails. This course is dual listed with EVS 521.
