Paul R. Ehrlich and Dennis C. Pirages reflect on the converging and interconnected challenges of “greater economic insecurity, political instability, and—of even greater importance—the growth of seemingly overwhelming global environmental problems,” which have characterized the twenty-first century. The authors consider what this era shaped by deepening globalization, population growth, and increasing consumption means for politicians and political scientists.
