Gouvernementalité et écologie politique

his article aims to apply a governmentality perspective on the "ecological crisis" and the evolution of environmental governance from a political ecology perspective. We build on André Gorz's classic elaboration that the crisis of nature is not external to the economy, society or politics. In this context, we develop the distinction between liberal and neoliberal political rationalities to advance the hypothesis that, although liberal governmentality has made visible the multifaceted phenomenology of the ecological crisis, actual attempts to manage it economically and deal with it politically - i.e., the so-called "green economy" - belong entirely to the era in which neoliberalism emerges as the most recent phase of biopolitical governmentality. By linking governmentality and political ecology, we explore questions that Foucault did not address in his work. In the context of such a "pluralized" biopolitics, we assess the discursive formation of the Anthropocene. We argue that the Anthropocene implements a particular form of depoliticization aimed at masking the link between global warming the ecological crisis) and global inequalities.
