本文分析了特万特佩克地峡（瓦哈卡，墨西哥）的风力发电场的发展，反过来，如何抵抗政治和当地对环境危害的看法挑战了可再生能源的转型。在围绕大型Mareña Renovables风电场的激烈辩论中，当地对生态条件的看法与针对全球气候修复的环境知识形式之间出现了巨大的差异。这些分歧表明不同的方式想象和阐述“中世纪生态权威”-一系列经验，科学和管理真理，在全球人为变化的时代，生态知识和未来预测的索赔。无论是由居民社区、国家官员、企业代表还是环境专家阐述，生态权威都通过代表生物圈（包括人类和非人类）的未来，并就生物圈的未来发生的灾难性变化提出道德要求而获得特别的吸引力。文章最后讨论了生物政治和生态权威的立场是如何一致的，这表明，虽然生物政治干预的原始站点一直是人口和人类物种，能源，大气，水球和岩石圈的变化，被称为人类世的要求，我们占生活在其本地尺寸以及更大的行星bios的规模。
This article analyzes the development of wind parks across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (Oaxaca, Mexico) and, in turn, how a politics of resistance and local perceptions of environmental peril have challenged renewable energy transitions. In the fraught debates surrounding the massive Mareña Renovables wind park, dramatic distinctions have emerged between local perceptions of ecological conditions and forms of environmental knowledge calibrated to global climate remediation. These divergences indicate distinct ways of imagining and articulating “anthropocenic ecoauthority”—a series of experiential, scientific, and managerial truth-claims regarding ecological knowledge and future forecasting in an era of global anthropogenic change. Whether enunciated by resident communities, state officials, corporate representatives, or environmental experts, ecoauthority gains its particular traction by asserting ethical claims on behalf of, and in regards to, the anthropogenically altered future of the biosphere, human and nonhuman. The article concludes with a discussion of how biopolitical and ecoauthoritative positions coincide, suggesting that although the original sites of biopolitical intervention have been population and the human species, the energic, atmospheric, aquaspheric, and lithospheric shifts that have been dubbed the Anthropocene demand that we account for life in its local dimensions as well as on the scale of the greater planetary bios.
