Freedom, Affluence, and Climate Change: A Fuzzy History

The review argues that the climate crisis stems from the intertwined concepts of autonomy and affluence in modern political thought. It traces these concepts through different eras, highlighting how they shape our relationship with nature and contribute to the current ecological crisis. However, the review also notes the limitations of this intellectual history approach and calls for more nuanced analysis.
