Assessing the neoliberal state in the bioeconomy
The bioeconomy transformation has become an integral part of the global environmental agenda and its governance has become the subject of intense academic analysis and debate. A recurring theme in social science scholarship is the characterization of the bioeconomy as a neoliberal political project that seeks to commodify and marketize nature, while limiting social inclusion to ensure its success. While this literature has significantly advanced …
The Political Settlements Dataset

I claim that a high relative concentration of the urban population and political, economic …
