Policy Debates on Hydraulic Fracturing : Comparing Coalition Politics in North America and Europe, Hardback Book

Policy Debates on Hydraulic Fracturing : Comparing Coalition Politics in North America and Europe Hardback

Edited by Christopher M. Weible, Tanya Heikkila, Karin Ingold, Manuel Fischer

Hardback

Description

This edited volume compares seven countries in North America and Europe on the highly topical issue of oil and gas development that uses hydraulic fracturing or “fracking.” The comparative analysis is based on the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF) and guided by two questions: First, in each country, what are current coalitions and the related policy output?

Second, based on the current situation, what are the chances for future policy change?

This book is the first to use a social science approach to analyze hydraulic fracturing debates and the first application of the ACF that is deliberately comparative.

The contributions in this book advance our understanding about the formation of coalitions and development of public policy in the context of different forms of government and economically recoverable natural resources.
