A contested transition toward a coal-free future: Advocacy coalitions and coal policy in the Czech Republic
Original language description
Using data from an organizational survey and social network analysis techniques, we identify two competing and ideologically distant coalitions: The Industry Coalition and Environmental Coalition. The results further show high fragmentation among decision-makers, as indicated by their cross-coalition membership and the heterogeneity of their policy beliefs. The decision-makers are targeted by principal members of both coalitions, i.e. environmental non-governmental organizations and industry, but also by research organizations. Lastly, expert information exchange strongly overlaps with the identified coalitions and thus increases their cohesiveness. It is argued that such subsystem configuration limits the potential for policy change through negotiated agreement or policy learning. Policy brokers and policy venues are suggested as remedies to moderate the adversarial nature of the subsystem.
