"Dominant frames in think tanks on climate policy in Europe"

THINCKlima presented the paper "Dominant frames in think tanks on climate policy in Europe" (authored by Núria Almiron, Maxwell Boykoff, Francisco Heras and Marta Narberhaus) at the 2018 ECREA Conference, held in Lugano, Switzerland from 31st October to 3rd November 2018.

The ECREA Science and Environment section kindly distinguished the paper as Best Paper of the Sience and Environment Section at ECREA 2018.

Abstract: The paper presented findings from a in-progress research conducting a frame analysis on the output of a list of climate change denial European think tanks. Preliminary results show that most US counterframes are found in a number of climate contrarian think tanks in Europe, following similar discursive patterns, including the alignment with neoliberal ideology to varying degree.
