Sammendrag
Jessica Dempsey's book, 'Enterprising Nature – Economics, Markets, and Finance in Global Biodiversity Politics', is an insightful and entertaining contribution to scholarly debates about the commercialization of nature and environmental conservation in a neoliberal era. The book is well written and suitable for students and researchers interested in the role of markets in resolving environmental challenges. It rightly reminds us that the valuation and commercialization of nature is not a socially neutral process at all – instead, it is embedded in complex webs of power relations and vested interests where outcomes may be far from fair.
