Call for Papers
Journal /Ámbitos. Revista Internacional de Comunicación/
Special issue “Lobbying for (in)action: Climate Emergency, Interest Groups and Denial” Guest Editors: Núria Almiron & Jose A. Moreno (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Spain)

This special issue theme is found at the intersection of climate change denial and interest groups (like lobbies, think tanks and any type of advocacy organization). The special issue aims to encourage researchers in any area of the social sciences to focus on the role of interest groups in delaying climate policies through an awareness of the complexity of climate change denial. We therefore invite papers related to this complexity promoting climate inaction and the current climate crisis pertaining, but not limited to, the following topics: - Strategic communication, public relations and media coverage of interest groups involved in climate inaction: media representation, lobbies and think tanks’ rhetoric, discourse analysis, discursive networks, communication strategies, etc. - Public Affairs, interest groups theory and practice connected to climate inaction: institutional relations, profiles of key pressure groups, network coalitions, the political economy of lobbies and think tanks, etc. - Anthropocentrism and speciesism in climate inaction connected to interest groups: animal agriculture lobbies, dietary guidelines and lobbies, think tanks related to the industry, etc. - Androcentrism and patriarchy in climate inaction connected to interest groups: toxic and new masculinities, ecomodernism, industrialism, masculine-driven techno-utopias, etc. - Neoliberalism, the rise of far-right ideologies and interest groups: conservative narratives, right-wing populism, the making of neoliberal knowledge, the links between the rise of the far-right and climate change denial, etc. - Other topics connected to interest groups and climate inaction: climate justice, climate change activism, environmental advocacy, the sociology of climate change denial, animal ethics and advocacy, etc.
