New Technologies, Old Ideas, and the Dynamics of Public Policy.Energy policies that promote new technologies and energy sources are policies for the future. They influence the shape of emergent technological systems, and also condition our social, political and economic lives. Solar Energy, Technology Policy, and Institutional Values demonstrates the difficulties of deliberating such properties by providing a historical case study that analyses US renewable energy policy from the end of World War II through the energy crisis of the 1970s. The book illuminates the ways beliefs and values come to dominate official problem frames and get entrenched in institutions. In doing so it also explains why advocates of renewable energy have often faced ideological opposition, and why policy makers fail to take them seriously.Solar Energy, Technology Policy, & Institutional ValuesSolar energyEnergy policySolar energy.Energy policy.333.792/3Laird Frank N.1029075UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910455330503321Solar energy, technology policy, and institutional values2445324UNINA
