Politically, we think it contributes by opening up questions around what the implications of the increasing functional integration between mining and automobile industry means for labour and environmental movements. 5/5.

… and 2) the exciting debates around state-capitalism as we examine how CATL seks to mould the state-capital relation in different contexts amidst increasing geopolitical tensions. 4/5.

Intellectually, our analysis speaks to 1) at least parts of Arboleda’s Planetary Mine in that we through CATL’s investments trace the supply chain ‘beyond the mine’… 3/5.

In the midst of what the FT has called the “new Darwinian world” of the energy transition, we begin scratching the surface of the global web of extraction, production and circulation activities that the company oversees. 2/5.

. we argue there is at the moment less focus on inter-capitalist struggles and questions of markets, competition and technical change and their effects on.accumulation strategies. With this contribution, we sought to take a step in that direction. 5/5.

States, and especially firms, routinely fail in their efforts (Shaikh 2016) – not least in the intensely.competitive dynamics we find under the moment of green extractivism. Where current work in pol ecol on green extractivism (rightly so) focuses on struggle against “Capital”4/5.

We use the case of BHP and its relative lack of success to emphasize how green extractivism should not be understood as "a faceless, 'structural force'" and a foregone conclusion but as constituted by "the mundane workings of states and firms" (Arboleda, 2020, p.22). 3/5.

We examine this question through the case of the transition mineral nickel and through elucidating how the.largest mining company by market cap., BHP, has attempted, but as of yet is actually failing, to significantly.accumulate through the expansion of the nickel CF. 2/5.
