Climate change as identity politics – Annica Kronsell

Professor Annica Kronsell focuses her research on environmental social science, governance and gender. She begins her presentation by stating that climate change has gone from being a purely meteorological matter to a governance issue, paved with injustices. In her talk, she emphasizes the importance of having an intersectional perspective when approaching environmental issues. 'Intersectional analysis of climate change governance suggests that we understand power as relational, as categories of difference. But also that we recognise how intersectional power not only relates to groups in society but to governance, policy and institutions. We can work with these insights to question privilege and increase inclusion. It might bring in alternative knowledge, visions and ways of thinking that might be needed in this time.'
