Abstract/Index
Brazil's dual positioning in global climate and energy governance. The empirical tension: climate leadership and extractive expansion. Theoretical framework: extractivism, energy political economy and structural tensions in Brazil’s climate leadership. Extractivism and resource political economy. Path dependency and historical institutionalism. The political economy of energy transitions. Climate leadership and emerging powers. Conceptualizing structural tension. Historical foundations and structural features of Brazil’s energy model. Long-term extractive trajectories and development of Brazil’s resource-based political economy. Structural expansion of the pre-salt hydrocarbon complex. Hydrocarbons as a pillar of external and fiscal stability. Renewable electricity and energy hybridization. Structural configuration and analytical implications. Articulating ecological ambition within a hybrid development model. Recalibration of climate commitment: NDC 2023–2025. Amazon, sovereignty and justice framing. Cop30 as a strategic climate leadership platform. Institutionalization of climate governance. Institutionalized structural tensions in Brazil’s energy policy. Coexistence of upstream development and climate commitments. Asymmetry of capex and frontier licensing (pre-salt and equatorial margin). Fiscal entrenchment and rent-based coalitions. Institutional layering and managed hybridization. Extractivist resilience and the limits of ecological transformation. Extractivist resilience in conditional perspective. Stranded assets and investment lock-in. External demand vulnerabilities. Global climate governance pressures. Aggregate theoretical perspective. Conditions for rupture.
