Routledge Handbook of Energy Democracy: Routledge Environment and Sustainability Handbooks

Editat de Andrea M. Feldpausch-Parker, Danielle Endres, Tarla Rai Peterson, Stephanie L. Gomez

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 ian 2024

This handbook offers a comprehensive transdisciplinary examination of the research and practices that constitute the emerging research agenda in energy democracy.
With protests over fossil fuels and controversies over nuclear and renewable energy technologies, democratic ideals have contributed to an emerging social movement. Energy democracy captures this movement and addresses the issues of energy access, ownership, and participation at a time when there are expanding social, political, environmental, and economic demands on energy systems. This volume defines energy democracy as both a social movement and an academic area of study and examines it through a social science and humanities lens, explaining key concepts and reflecting state-of-the-art research. The collection is comprised of six parts:
1 Scalar Dimensions of Power and Governance in Energy Democracy
2 Discourses of Energy Democracy
3 Grassroots and Critical Modes of Action
4 Democratic and Participatory Principles
5 Energy Resource Tensions
6 Energy Democracies in Practice
The vision of this handbook is explicitly transdisciplinary and global, including contributions from interdisciplinary international scholars and practitioners. The Routledge Handbook of Energy Democracy will be the premier source for all students and researchers interested in the field of energy, including policy, politics, transitions, access, justice, and public participation.

Recenzii

"A jaw dropping, rich, and wondrously comprehensive treatment of the topic of energy democracy. A refreshing reminder than energy decisions, policies, and pathways have as much to do with politics and systems of political deliberation as they do hardware, infrastructure, or tariffs. For acts of energy consumption, investment or self-generation can be political statements alongside transactions in the marketplace or preferences for some technical criterion. This book offers a refreshing, urgent reminder of what is at stake—it is at once a sober diagnosis, a creative piece of scholarship, and a call for action."
Benjamin K. Sovacool, Professor of Energy Policy, University of Sussex
"This Handbook considers "energy democracy" as both a social movement and a terminological "composition" or way into important conversations about how technological innovation, new economic and political structures, and adaptive communication practices are all required to transform our broken relationship with the planet. Incredibly timely given recent events from Texas to India to around the globe!"
Stephen P. Depoe, Professor and Head, Department of Communication, University of Cincinnati
"Smart, comprehensive, and internationally authored, Routledge Handbook of Energy Democracy is an essential reference for scholars and climate activists alike in understanding the sociotechnical complexities of the energy transition now occurring and the urgent choices the climate crisis is demanding of us."
Robert Cox, Professor Emeritus, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
"A groundbreaking and highly recommended intervention that challenges taken-for-granted assumptions that energy transition necessarily delivers more sustainable futures. Contributors interrogate up-and-downstream aspects of energy assemblages, exploring new technologies and articulating participatory alternatives in the context of resource constraints and climate crisis. This collection is a must for exploring just transition."
Majia H. Nadesan, Professor of Communication, Arizona State University
"The intersection of energy, environmental, and security concerns creates urgent problems requiring collaborative solutions. This exciting volume provides a rich and ambitious overview of democratic concepts and practices that can empower scholars and activists in transforming the disastrous trends currently created by technocratic, neo-colonial, and corporate-capitalist control of energy systems."
Bryan C. Taylor, Professor of Communication, University of Colorado Boulder
