Abstract
En 中文
Over the past fifty years, policy-makers and institutions have repeatedly failed to induce systemic shifts to address the scale of the ecological crisis. In Captured futures, Maarten Hajer and Jeroen Oomen argue that this failure is not primarily a consequence of insufficient political will or inadequate technology, but of the conceptual frameworks through which environmental politics is routinely conducted—the scripts actors follow, the futures they allow themselves to imagine and the roles assigned to scientists, activists and policy-makers alike. Though the authors' disciplinary home lies outside International Relations, the book speaks directly to some of the field's most pressing concerns including the erosion of multilateral environmental commitments, the persistence of the gap between scientific consensus and binding political action, and the contested foundations of global climate governance.
