Chapter 3, “The State on the ‘Green’ Belt and Road,” studies the international implications of China’s “ecological civilization,” as the country rises to become a world superpower and seeks to export a development model that is both green and state-led. Chapter 4, “Global China Goes ‘Green’,” focuses on China’s role in global trade, biodiversity, and climate, as the state finds its footing as a key contributor to the problems and a key actor in trying to find solutions. In these empirical chapters, we follow the protagonist of the Chinese state as it broadens and deepens its exercise of environmental power. We close with Chapter 5, “Environmental Authoritarianism on a Troubled Planet,” in which we reflect on the implications of our work and point toward the future.

      We hope that this book will appeal to both academic and general readerships. Scholars of environmental studies, political science, sociology, geography, East Asian studies, development, political theory, and international political economy may find the book of interest, as it speaks to the ongoing debates in the social sciences about authoritarianism, the East Asian developmental state, the decoupling of economic growth and ecological footprint, ecological modernization, globalization, and the challenges of the Anthropocene. We have also tried to write in such a way that the book will be of interest to students and activists who are seeking a way forward on a planet that is losing ground against humanity and that many of them will inherit.

The prevailing sentiment in the West about China and the environment often entails two faces – pessimism over climate change and insecurity about a rising China. We do not provide a falsely rosy picture to counter either of these sentiments. Instead, we stress the importance of a systematic, evidence-based understanding of China’s exercise of environmental power. The empirical examples and cases in the chapters that follow have convinced us that the future of the planet hinges on the Chinese state’s efforts to go genuinely green. To do so, the state must trust the Chinese people to participate in environmental governance through “supervision by the masses,” rather than using a green cloak to obscure its current trajectory toward totalizing social control.
