The article signals the need for a deepened theoretical analysis of environmental issues in International Relations studies. It initializes the idea of “Greening” the Critical Theory of International Relations with critical concepts from other sciences. Thus it proposes the scope of Critical Theory of IR to be expanded to cover not only the relations between power and capital, but the relations of power-capital-nature. It shows common points between the Critical Theory of IR and the concepts of world-ecology and the Capitalocene by Jason W. Moore and proposes reforming some founding definitions that the Critical Theory of IR is based on. This includes re-conceptualizing the critique of capitalism as a way of organizing nature, but also distancing oneself from the Cartesian dichotomy of Society + Nature, which is an obstacle to properly including environmental issues in IR research.

The paper proposes an analysis of the ecological discourse within the times of the Capitalocene. The latter term, strongly promoted by Jason W. Moore, is a try for making sense of capitalism as a world-ecology of power. The author of the paper indicates that environmentalism has become neoliberal. It was taken over by the discourse of capitalism, which has made environmental activism a product. An important role in this process was played by surveillance capitalism described by Shoshana Zuboff. The paper puts forward a thesis that the activity of neoliberal environmental activism is designed and maintained by the capitalist structures of power, and that functioning within it is a form of privilege.

HOW INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS SCHOLARS EXPLAIN THE WORLD: A WORLD-ECOLOGICAL CRITIQUE

The article is an operationalization of a new theoretical-methodological approach to analyzing International Relations discourse. The approach is based on the Critical Theory of International Relations and the concept of world-ecology. It re-conceptualizes the critique of mainstream International Relations theories and paradigms in a way which foregoes the Cartesian dualism of Society and Nature in order to analyze the subject through the dialectical power-capital-nature relation. The article analyzes two contemporary texts from “Foreign Affairs” which defend the realist and liberal theories. It shows that both discourses only stabilize the existing order without challenging it in any way or proposing radical ways of dealing with the ecological crisis. They either ignore environmental issues or treat them as solvable under the current political-economic status quo.

W niniejszym artykule zrekonstruowana została teoria akumulacji przez wywłaszczenie (APW) Davida Harveya, mająca na celu wyjaśnienie specyfiki akumulacji kapitału w warunkach neoliberalnego kapitalizmu. Sięgając do myśli Marksa oraz Róży Luksemburg, Harvey zaproponował imponującą teorię jakościowej zmiany w obrębie kapitalistycznego sposobu produkcji. Jak jednak przekonywali jego krytycy, koncepcja Harveya zmaga się z przedstawionymi w niniejszym tekście problemami. Rozwiązaniem tych problemów może być szkoła „ekologii-światowej”, przeanalizowana na przykładzie jednego z jej przedstawicieli, Jasona W. Moore’a. Rozwiązując problemy, o których pisali Bin i Ras, wspomniana koncepcja stwarza możliwości, by APW stała się teorią ukazującą pewne kontinuum zmian ilościowych w obrębie kapitalizmu. Innymi słowy, perspektywa badawcza Moore’a wyznacza nowe perspektywy zastosowania APW.

This article reconstructs David Harvey’s accumulation by dispossession (ABD) theory aimed at explaining the specifics of capital accumulation under neoliberal capitalism. Reaching back to the thought of Marx and Rosa Luxemburg, Harvey proposed an impressive theory of qualitative change within the capitalist mode of production. However, as his critics have convincingly presented, Harvey’s concept struggles with the problems presented in the text. The solution to these problems appears to be the school of “world-ecology”, analyzed here on the example of one of its representatives, Jason W. Moore. By solving the problems that Bin and Ras wrote about, it creates the possibility for APW to become a theory that shows a certain continuum of quantitative change within capitalism. In other words, Moore’s research perspective creates new perspectives for the application of APW.
