This book analyses the evolution of the sustainability discourse in
the European Union, exploring the conditions necessary for
sustainable development to move from a conceptual model into a
model for action for strategic decision makers at all levels of
governance. This book questions the extent to which the discourse
on sustainability has become embedded into governance structures in
Europe. It focuses on the importance of the nature of the language
of the political discourse on sustainability and how ideas are
communicated amongst the actors and stakeholders in the policy
making process, as well as assessing the conceptual, political,
institutional and operational barriers apparent across the European
geographic region. Drawing case studies from numerous policy areas
including climate change, EU emissions trading scheme, renewable
energy, nuclear energy, the European integrated energy market,
transport mobility, and environmental protection, expert
contributors unveil a narrowing of the discourse on sustainability
that has taken place in Europe. However, a considerable
discontinuity remains between the economic and environmental
objectives of sustainable development, and the authors argue that
it is essential that conditions for a dynamic discourse, open to
multiple participants, are developed. Sustainable Development and
Governance in Europe will be of strong interest to students and
scholars of comparative politics, governance, sustainable
development and environmental politics and studies.
