ベルギーを事例に、再生可能エネルギー拡大に伴う新たなコモディティ・フロンティアの形成を分析。洋上風力資源の国家管理と、グリーン電力と技術的ノウハウの商品化がどのように進んだかを、海洋空間計画と送電網拡張に着目して解明。国家は単一の主体ではなく、多様な社会的アクターの交渉を通じて介入が生まれると論じる。
English
Using Belgium as a case study, this paper analyzes the formation of new commodity frontiers accompanying renewable energy expansion. It examines how state control over offshore wind resources and the commodification of green electricity and technical know-how developed, focusing on marine spatial planning and grid expansion. The authors argue that the state is not a unified actor but that interventions emerge from negotiations among diverse social actors.

📄 Abstract（原文）
The ongoing expansion of renewable energy goes hand in hand with the opening of new commodity frontiers. While academic literature has historically focused on extractivism enabled by (post-)colonial states in the Global South, the growth of renewables entails a reshoring of these frontiers to the Global North. Using Belgium as case study, we develop two arguments on these emerging manifestations of the relationship between the state and the commodity frontier: (a) we situate wind as a natural resource within a broader complex of entangled “innovative” commodities, and (b) we draw on Jessop's strategic-relational approach to unpack the varied ways state power is exerted in frontier-making. Belgium was an early adopter of offshore windfarms. By 2020, it had the second highest installed offshore wind energy capacity per capita in the world, meeting approximately 10% of its electricity demand. We show how the Belgian offshore frontier got its distinctive form through state interventions in the establishment of control over offshore wind resources and the entangled commodification of green electricity and technical know-how. Our analysis highlights marine spatial planning and the expansion of the electricity grid as key manifestations of the state's territorial power, illustrating the interplay between its discursive, legal-institutional, and infrastructural dimensions. Throughout the analysis, we emphasise that the state is not a singular, unified actor; rather, its interventions emerge from negotiations among diverse social actors exerting power through the state. The Belgian frontier-making process has been contingent on the opportunities created by the convergence of environmental sustainability and economic innovation agendas, whose alignment required careful mediation to sustain broad support for the transformation of marine territory.
