Climate Change Denial and Public Relations: Strategic Communication and Interest Groups in Climate Inaction is a critical approach to climate change denial from a strategic communication perspective. The book aims to provide an in-depth analysis of how strategic communication by interest groups is contributing to climate change inaction. It does this from a multidisciplinary perspective that expands the usual approach of climate change denialism and introduces a critical reflection on the roots of the problem, including the ethics of the denialist ideology and the rhetoric and role of climate change advocacy. Topics addressed include the power of persuasive narratives and discourses constructed to support climate inaction by lobbies and think tanks, the dominant human supremacist view and the patriarchal roots of denialists and advocates of climate change alike, the knowledge coalitions of the climate think tank networks, the denial strategies related to climate change of the nuclear, oil, and agrifood lobbies, the role of public relations firms, the anthropocentric roots of public relations, taboo topics such as human overpopulation and meat-eating, and the technological myth. This unique volume is recommended reading for students and scholars of communication and public relations. 410 0$aRoutledge new directions in public relations and communication research. 606 $aClimatic changes$xSocial aspects 606 $aGlobal warming$xSocial aspects 610 $aClimate denial 610 $aclimate change advocacy 610 $aclimate change inaction 610 $aenvironmental communication 610 $aethics 610 $ahuman overpopulation taboo 610 $aInterest groups 610 $aLobbying 610 $anuclear denial 610 $aStrategic communication 615 0$aClimatic changes$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aGlobal warming$xSocial aspects. 676 $a304.25 700 $aXifra i Triadu?$b Jordi$01033074 702 $aAlmiron$b Nu?ria 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910508506703321 996 $aClimate change denial and public relations$92451355 997 $aUNINA
