Emancipatory Climate Actions “Why does the world seem ever further from averting climate catastrophe? Past decades have seen no shortage of high-profile rhetorics. For an international treaty commitment, public and private efforts are unprecedented. Viable technical and wider social solutions abound. Yet real progress remains thwarted. In this timely and innovative book, Laurence Delina points to some key reasons why— and offers some novel and important new insights. Extending beyond the usual policy tropes, the book bursts with fresh ideas for challenging deep hegemonies and collectively ‘culturing’ the needed radical transformations. The result is an invigorating triumph of hope over despair.” —Andrew Stirling, Professor of Science & Technology Policy, SPRU—Science Policy Research Unit, University of Sussex, UK
