Asia Pacific Journal of Public Administration
'A much welcomed contribution to the most significant debate of our time … Given the ‘do or die’ imperative radically to rewire our systems of production and consumption as quickly and justly as possible, Green Growth: Ideology, Political Economy, and the Alternatives is crucial reading for all.'
Marx and Philosophy Review of Books
'Green Growth offers us much insight and should be considered a significant contribution to the fields of sustainable development, political ecology and ecological economics.'
