Negotiating just transitions
Politics and power are increasingly central to the study of sustainability transitions, including just transitions. One line of research differentiates between incumbent coalitions that resist and insurgent coalitions that promote these transitions. More recently, there has been attention on the politics and power within these coalitions and the implications of who participates and how for the kinds of policy preferences that emerge. Here, we foc…
Une transition planétaire juste ? Comment la rendre inclusive et juste
La justice planétaire nécessite une transition planétaire juste (tpj) et profonde. Reconnaissant le caractère contesté de la transition juste (tj), nous proposons un schéma d’analyse afin de mieux interpréter et différencier le nombre croissant de propositions de tj et, par extension, de tpj. Après avoir souligné l'association progressive de propositions de tj à la politique mondiale, ainsi que la démultiplication de ces propositions, nous utilis…
What is planetary justice
To reconsider the meaning of justice in a planetary frame is both a necessity in our time of multiple entangled crises and an endeavour that seeks convergence and synthesis where there might instead be irreconcilable differences.We invited scholars from diverse disciplinary backgrounds to share their perspectives on the scope, scale, and purpose of planetary justice and received a variety of responses -all highly worthwhile in their own right.Wha…
Planetary justice
Justice concerns have been central to contemporary social and ecological debates for decades but have only recently made inroads into the Earth system centric discourses on the Anthropocene and planetary boundaries. Our focus here is the emerging discourse on planetary justice which has aimed to be a corrective to this lacuna. Our goals in this paper are to delineate the general parameters and novel contributions of planetary justice while also r…
Just transitions for a new eco-social contract
By combining environmental and social objectives in order to address climate change and other environmental challenges, ‘just transitions’ have the potential to accelerate low-carbon transitions in an inclusive and equitable manner. More broadly, by strengthening an egalitarian and ecological public sphere that protects workers’ rights and the rights of nature, just transitions can contribute to a new eco-social contract for both people and plane…
Towards a relational environmental labour studies
This essay builds on the contributions to this special issue to advance a historical relational approach to labour studies, industrial relations, and Environmental Labour Studies (ELS) while differentiating it from the interactional approaches currently dominant. Central to this choice is that relational approaches provide more empirically compelling explanations of the choices of labour, capital, and state because they take into account that the…

The globalization of Just Transition in the world of labour
Just Transition has become the major expression of labour environmentalism at the global level and global union organizations have played a central role. My goal in this article is to provide an analytically informed account of this trajectory. The first part of this contribution, therefore, clarifies the analytical scheme. In the second and main part I will use this analytical scheme to trace the role of global unions in the globalization of jus…
Planetary just transition? How inclusive and how just
Planetary justice (PJ) requires a profound planetary just transition (PJT). Recognizing the essentially contested nature of just transition (JT) we propose an analytical scheme to better interpret and differentiate amongst the growing number of JT proposals and, by extension, PJTs. After outlining the increasing association of JT proposals with global policy, as well as their proliferation, we employ scale to address their spatial and temporal in…
Interrogating socio-ecological coalitions
To confront the powerful forces of neoliberalism and hyper-nationalism, alliances between social and environmental activists are necessary. However, efforts to forge effective cross-movement alliances often run-up against differences in core political values. How can we make sense of the political ideologies around which socio-ecological engagements coalesce or fracture? We outline an interpretive scheme that analyzes and compares the engagements…
The labour–nature relationship
This special issue is a contribution to environmental labour studies, which aims to investigate the practices and theories that integrate labour and nature, by focusing on labour environmentalism. While nature is privately appropriated and exploited by Capital, workers’ organizations tend to construct nature as labour’s other, a place to enjoy or a place to be protected from destruction at best. In the following introductory article to this speci…
US labour unions and green transitions
The goal of this article is to interpret and analyse two ambitious and prominent cases of labour environmentalism in the USA – the par excellence example of liberal capitalism. In order to capture the nuances, contradictions, and varieties of labour environmentalism, I employ an analytical scheme based on three dimensions. The first dimension (depth) explores the social and environmental commitments manifested in these cases, the second dimension…

Translating European Labor Relations Practices to the United States Through Global Framework Agreements? German and Swedish Multinationals Compared
Extensive research has shown that European multinational enterprises (MNEs) have a propensity to avoid collective employee representation when going abroad. This study investigates whether Global Framework Agreements (GFAs) can reverse this pattern by comparing how four European MNEs—two from Germany and two from Sweden—implement GFAs in the United States, a country with weak collective representation rights. The authors find that an MNE’s home c…
Global labour unions and just transition to a green economy
La stratégie syndicale d'une « transition juste » vers une économie durable
Romain Felli et Dimitris Stevis retracent l'origine de la stratégie de « transition juste », que l'on trouve désormais très présente dans les prises de position syndicales, de l'échelle internationale à l'échelle locale (nationale). Ce mot d'ordre rappelle qu'en matière de transition écologique les changements peuvent tout à fait ne pas être « justes », les patrons peuvent par exemple utiliser le chantage à l'emploi pour obtenir des conditions de…
The globalizations of the environment
The environment was cast in global terms at least as early as the late 1940s. Ever since, the meanings of environmental globalization have changed to reflect broader developments in the world political economy and the ability of various social forces to frame these developments. In the first part of this article, I discuss my understanding of globalization in order to undermine the facile framing of the environment in globalized terms. This is fo…
Agents, Subjects, Objects, or Phantoms? Labor, the Environment, and Liberal Institutionalization
The liberal institutionalization of world politics has engendered a vibrant debate over its form and its content. The proposals range from those aiming at the democratization of international institutions to those that aim to modify them at the margins. This contribution proposes that the democratization of social institutions has both an internal (within an organization or sector) and an external (in relation to whole political economy) dimensio…

Rules and politics in international integration
Deepening global and regional integration has brought in its wake various public policies and public policy proposals. The comparative study of those public policies can shed light on variations amongst them as well as alert us to any common dynamics. Here we offer a systematic comparison of the environmental policies associated with North American and European integration by examining their procedural and substantive rules within their respectiv…
International Labor Organizations, 1864-1997
Deepening neoliberal integration, the end of the Cold War, and the decline or compromise of communist and socialist parties, offer a window of opportunity for international labor politics. Why is it, then, that the comprehensive network of global and regional labor organizations continues to play a marginal role, even though they are clearly conscious of these developments, and have sought to respond to them? The answer to this question has impor…
Labour
Beyond the built‐in agenda, issues which have been proposed by some countries include trade and labour standards (the most potentially controversial of all these subjects). Renato Ruggiero, Director‐General, World Trade Organization (WTO), 28 May 1996
Globalization and International Labor Organizing
Globalization, the rapid increase in the pace of world market and social integration, is producing a ripening global awareness among all nations and a plethora of international organizations to coordinate and promote its further development. Huge transnational corporations have led the way, followed by neoliberal states, but also included are all kinds of social, scientific, sports, and other international organizations.

Political Ecology in the Semi-periphery
Nuclear Power, Technological Autonomy, and the State in Mexico
On 10 October 1988, President Miguel de la Madrid authorized loading of the first of two reactor units at the Laguna Verde nuclear power plant, on the Mexican gulf coast above the port of Veracruz. De la Madrid's decision to move ahead with Laguna Verde, Mexico's first foray into commercial nuclear energy production, came as no surprise. What was extraordinary was that it proved to be one of the most controversial policy actions of his sexenio. C…
