The Zetkin Collective is a research group made up of activists and academics.[4] It focuses on analyzing and explaining the political ecology of the far-right,[4][5] including ecofascism and Malthusianism[6] as well as climate change denial and eco-nationalism.[7][8] The group began within the human ecology department of Lund University in Sweden.[9]

The collective authored the book White Skin, Black Fuel: On the Danger of Fossil Fascism, which was published by Verso Press. In 2020, the French-language edition Fascisme fossile: L'extrême droite, l'énergie, le climat was published by La Fabrique[12][13] and named a book of the day by Philosophie Magazine.[14]
