abstract
This study article critically applies the Weberian mechanism of the routinization of charisma onto contemporary processes in developed states and global capitalist network relationships classified by some analysts as ecological modernization. We should ask what means the systemic integration and cooptation of environmentalist critical challenge to the modern civilization: what is the result of “ecological modernization” – is it innovation and the systemic change, or is it rather new integration and system stabilisation? Cooptation of originally radical critique is exemplified in a framework of institutionalization of environmental discourse as formalised system of bureaucratic rules and technocratic expertise and procedures. The contemporary crisis of the interactions between human society and nature confronts the static image of the bureaucratic administration of the risks as something external and technically manageable.
