Description

Governments throughout the world are responding to the threat of climate change by accelerating the deployment of renewable energy technologies. But this deployment is frequently leading to controversy, as communities face the prospect of unfamiliar, often large-scale energy technologies being sited near to their homes. While such controversy is commonly labelled `NIMBYism' (not in my back yard), social scientists have failed to find empirical evidence to validate the concept and have criticized its use. This book goes beyond `NIMBYism' by providing a timely, international, multidisciplinary review of research on public engagement with renewable energy, Public engagement is conceived broadly, encompassing engagement by the public (including supportive, oppositional and apathetic public responses) as well as engagement with the public (including the assumptions held by developers about public responses and the methods used to enable participation by affected communities). The contributors are leading experts from the UK, Europe, North and South America and Australia, drawn from a variety of social science disciplinary perspectives. The book provides professionals, policy-makers and members of the public with a timely overview of critical social issues involved in mitigating climate change by accelerating the deployment of renewable energy technologies.
