Eckersley eventually makes no secret that her ecopolitics is a state-centered one. She has little hope for the potential of the environmental movement relying on the influence of localized and devolved battles, each to be fought in smaller locales. Her fears of the potential of democracy and deliberation, in addition to the problems of distributive justice and equity are among her concerns with devolution, not to mention a perceived fear of a race to the bottom.
Her approach favors an ecosocialist bent, although her version would include granting moral consideration of the biosphere as an equal player whilst addressing the problems of society and of the human condition.
Eckersley takes the politics out of green political theory. Her ideal is a strong eco-socialist state with stratified layers of hierarchy. But it is in these very spaces between levels of government where politics will most likely make an appearance.
