Workshop: The End of Extraction as We Know It: A Roundtable Discussion

This roundtable brings together contributors to a timely and urgent conversation in light of the intensification and transformation of extractivism in the context of the energy transition and geopolitical conflict, crisis, and disorder. As states and corporations race to secure supply chains for critical minerals and position themselves as leaders in battery and electric vehicle production, new forms of extraction are proliferating, often under the banner of “green” development.
