The eco-technological fix to the climate crisis renders certain resources, such as lithium, as "critical". We argue … actors and interests in enabling lithium expansion and assess two channels through which financial actors shape producer … speculative momentum to lithium extraction, contributing to accelerating boom-bust patterns and short-termism. Methodologically …
