20.500.12556/RUL-171075 Governing the responsible self EU climate policy and the production of green subjectivities Upravljanje odgovornega sebstva The article presents critical analysis of the regime of eco-governmentality behind the EU’s green transition project, focusing on how it is exercised via the forming of green subjectivities and their individual environmental responsibility. We trace the four dimensions of ethics outlined by Foucault (ethical substance, mode of subjection, practices of the self, telos). Contemporary green citizenship is shown to be characterised by continuous everyday green behaviour and self-monitoring that may be traced back to Christian renunciation practices. This mode of governance, grounded in pastoral power, is argued to serve a dual function: in the name of green modernisation, it consolidates a neoliberal regime of eco-governmentality by promoting a form of subjectivation whereby individuals govern themselves according to the capitalist imperatives. At the same time, this mode of subjectivation complements the EU’s technocratic depoliticisation of the climate crisis. By partitioning responsibility within the domain of individual self-deciphered conduct, it systematically redirects focus away from the structural dimensions of ecological crises, preventing them from being articulated as matters of power, inequality, or systemic transformation. Članek izpelje kritično analizo režima ekovladnosti v ozadju projekta zelene tranzicije EU, pri čemer se osredini zlasti na to, kako se izvaja prek oblikovanja zelenih subjektivitet in njihove individualne okoljske odgovornosti. Sledimo štirim razsežnostim etike, ki jih je začrtal Foucault (etična substanca, način podrejanja, prakse sebstva in telos), in dokazujemo, da sta za sodobno zeleno državljanstvo značilna stalno zeleno obnašanje in samonadzor, ki izvira iz krščanskih praks odrekanja. Glavna teza članka je, da ta način upravljanja, ki temelji na pastoralni oblast, služi dvojni funkciji: s spodbujanjem oblike subjektivacije, v kateri se posamezniki upravljajo v skladu s kapitalističnimi imperativi, v imenu zelene modernizacije utrjuje neoliberalni režim ekološke vladavine. Po drugi strani pa ta način subjektivacije deluje komplementarno s tehnokratsko depolitizacijo podnebne krize, ki jo izvajajo strukture EU. Z umeščanjem podnebne odgovornosti v domeno posameznikovega ravnanja sistematično odvrača pozornost s strukturnih razsežnosti ekološke krize in preprečuje, da bi jih artikulirali kot vprašanja razmerij moči, neenakosti ali sistemske preobrazbe climate policy eco-governmentality technologies of the self pastoral power European Greeen Deal ndividualised responsibility podnebna politika ekovladnost tehnologije sebstva pastoralna oblast evropski zeleni dogovor individualna odgovornost true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2025-08-01 10:05:01 2025-08-01 10:05:06 2025-08-02 04:08:29 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 411-427 št. 2 Letn. 62 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 32:502/504 0040-3598 10.51936/tip.62.2.411 244019715 governing-the-responsible-self-eu-climate-policy-and-the-production-of-green-subjectivities.pdf governing-the-responsible-self-eu-climate-policy-and-the-production-of-green-subjectivities.pdf 1 1323C41AC203E4707338B7E3BF7A3D56 fcd2a0b6eda484ed66b272560c674798eba0307a65f8583749dcdd0007ac5f85 5712c676-6eae-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=213838 https://www.fdv.uni-lj.si/revije/znanstvene-revije/teorija-in-praksa/iz-vsebine/teorija-in-praksa-2-2025 0 6df92391-6eae-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=213839 Fakulteta za družbene vede Teorija in praksa 0 0 0
