This book focuses on the European Union’s (EU) climate change mitigation actions, developing a critical framework to the 2030 clean energy package and the 2050 long-term decarbonization strategy.

Reflecting on the possibility of real change and transition, the author develops a Lacanian-based discourse analysis which reflects on agentic capacities and assesses both the status quo and changes in the discourse. Informed by extensive fieldwork in Brussels and at the UN Framework Conventions on Climate Change, this interdisciplinary book spans global environmental politics, international relations, EU studies, and discourse theories/analysis.

It will be of particular interest to those working in critical theory, subjectivity, language, materiality and intersects with a wide range of disciplines such as philosophy, sociology, anthropology, geography, linguistics, and psychology.

Valeria Tolis is Lecturer in Climate change governance at University of Leeds, UK. As a scholar of critical environmental politics, her research contributes to investigating the mechanisms that govern status quo and change in the production of environmental knowledge and in the formulation of environmental policies.
