  2. 2. Prefigurative politics as applied to the climate crisis : A game theoretical assessment

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Nathan Carlshamre; [2023]
    Keywords : Prefigurative politics; game theory; prefiguration; climate activism; activism; environmental activism; tragedy of the commons; anarchism; left-libertarianism; political theory; Montgomery bus boycott; constructive program; ecotage; non-violence; violence; cartel theory; salience;

    Abstract : In this paper, I make use of the game-theoretical concepts of cartel theory and coordination theory via salience and Schelling points in order to assess the viability of prefigurative politics when used by group actors to address the particular case of the climate crisis.
