The influence of micropolitics in local climate governance: perspectives for climate research
摘要
The path to climate action pursued by local authorities is lined with micropolitical struggles and tactical games. The concept of micropolitics helps to better understand why local climate governance is a highly demanding endeavour, as it involves decision-making marked by competing interests and power imbalances. Aware of the existence of such dynamics, this paper offers new perspectives on an underestimated field of climate research.
