Addresses the implications of broad shifts in environmental politics for environmentalism & progressive politics. An updated summary of the themes & contentions in the author's Environmentalism and the Future of Progressive Politics (1989) is offered before reflecting on the ideological & political relevance of the Cold War's end & the fall of the far Left. Attention turns to globalization & the retrogressive impacts of capitalism. The implications of globalization for the politics of wealthier nations are considered, addressing the increasingly closed nature of current global decision making & the politics of deregulation.
