Climate change and socio-political cleavages in Australia
Abstract
Even though the response to climate change is urgent, it would be delayed and bent because of the complexities of natural scientific facts and the conflicts of stakeholder’s interest. This paper explores how the climate change policy is be delayed and bent focusing on Australia, which has ‘world first climate election’ in 2007. The situations including the vulnerable nature to climate change, frequent climate change events, high national concern on climate change, and the Australian Labour Party’s policy orientation is remunerative terms to the climate change policies. But the rich natural resource, economic structure deeply reliant on mining industry, resistance of the carbon political economic forces, mass media aggravating climate denial, and ‘bad politics’ delayed and bent them. The Australian case shows that global climate change, local climate change events, national industrial structure, people’s concern and attitude on them, and the politics impact on the climate change polices all together. So we need to find out the linkages among them,and explore the possibility of the ecological transformation of the link.
