National Climate Policy

Failed attempts at producing ambitious global climate commitments and instruments have made it increasingly important for nation-states to deliver climate policies. This in turn requires a better understanding of national climate policymaking. In this book, Elin Lerum Boasson develops an innovative and well-grounded analytical framework for assessing national climate-policy development.

Why do national climate policies emerge and change? This question is underpinned by the role played by different actors and the kind of social mechanism at work. Boasson asks, to what extent and how is the emergence and change of climate policy influenced by: politicians and the national political fields; business and organizational fields; EU policy and the European environment; social and entrepreneurial mechanisms?

Combining policy studies with sociological new institutionalism, and drawing on three climate policy sub-areas in Norway: renewable energy, low-energy buildings and carbon capture and storage, Boasson presents a multi-field framework that allows the reader to capture the entire policy cycle, explaining policy initiation, policy adoption and the long-term, social feedback effects resulting from implementation (or lack of implementation).

Elin Lerum Boasson is a senior researcher at the CICERO Centre for International Climate and Environmental Research and the Fridtjof Nansen Institute in Oslo, Norway. Boasson has specialized in climate policy studies, combining assessment of national climate policymaking with insights into EU climate policymaking.

This book marks the end of a long journey. I first started to explore how EU policy influenced Norwegian climate policies in 2006. The following year I received a PhD grant that allowed me to develop my initial thoughts into a full-blown thesis. The book you now hold is a considerably re-written version of the PhD thesis which I defended at the University of Oslo in December 2011.

Many people have contributed during my eight years of working on this manuscript. This study would simply not have been possible had it not been for the 95 interviewees. Their contributions have been of crucial importance to the project, and I am very grateful to all of you for your willingness to share your unique and valuable knowledge with me. Some of you spent several hours talking with me, and I have even interviewed several of you twice. You have given me insights that never could have been gained from written material alone.

A special thanks to my supervisor Tom Christensen, who has provided backing and masses of good advice throughout the process. Many other scholars have provided additional guidance and inspiration. Dick Scott, whom I had the pleasure of meeting in 2006, gave me the idea of the applying the neo-institutional term organizational field actively in my research. Later, in 2009, he kindly agreed to provide input to some early chapter drafts. During my stay at the University California, Berkeley, from August 2009 to August 2010, I had the pleasure of participating in workshops led by Neil Fligstein at the CCOP (Center for Culture, Organization, and Politics). Neil also kindly gave me valuable input to early drafts of chapters. I am particularly grateful to him for the idea of exploring entrepreneurship in greater detail.
