Energopolitics

Energopolitics by Dominic Boyer is an insightful exploration of the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, specifically wind power, in Mexico's Isthmus of Tehuantepec. Conducted between 2009 and 2013, Boyer’s fieldwork delves into the intricate political, social, and ecological dimensions of this significant shift in energy policy.

Published in 2019 and spanning 277 pages, Energopolitics is essential for anyone interested in the energy industries, international cooperation, and the political aspects of renewable energy development.
