CRUZ LERA, Estefanía. Is the Green New Deal Feasible in the United States? An Analysis based don the Dependent Trajectories and Legacies of Progressive Policy throughout its History. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2022, vol.67, n.245, pp.49-73.  Epub 21-Abr-2023. ISSN 0185-1918.  https://doi.org/10.22201/fcpys.2448492xe.2022.245.78973.

Current critical junctures suggest the need for a progressive policy change in the United States. From the approach of historical institutionalism, the political possibilities of the Green New Deal as progressive political change are discussed. A case study with comparative perspective of the great progressive stages-the Progressive Era, the New Deal and the Green New Deal-is conducted in order to study the schisms, dependent political trajectories, mechanisms of reinforcement and reproduction, and political legacies of each period. Its main finding is that it is the differences in the political design, such as the ambiguity of consisting only of a resolution and its decentralized and autonomous community-based implementation mechanisms, explain the distrust of moderate sectors and the low institutional success of the Green New Deal initiative compared to initiatives of the other reformist eras.

Palabras llave : historical institutionalism; progressive era; New Deal; Green New Deal.
