Energy Democracies for Sustainable Futures explores how our
dominant carbon and nuclear energy assemblages shape conceptions of
participation, risk, and in/securities, and how they might be
reengineered to deliver justice and democratic participation in
transitioning energy systems. Chapters assess the economies,
geographies and politics of current and future energy landscapes,
exposing how dominant assemblages (composed of technologies,
strategies, knowledge and authorities) change our understanding of
security and risk, and how they these shared understandings are
often enacted uncritically in policy. Contributors address integral
relationships across the production and government of material and
human energies and the opportunities for sustainable and democratic
governance. In addition, the book explores how interest groups
advance idealized energy futures and energy imaginaries. The work
delves into the role that states, market organizations and civil
society play in envisioned energy change. It assesses how risks and
security are formulated in relation to economics, politics,
ecology, and human health. It concludes by integrating the
relationships between alternative energies and governance
strategies, including issues of centralization and
decentralization, suggesting approaches to engineer democracy into
decision-making about energy assemblages.
