Power and smart meters
Social acceptance has become a key consideration for promoters, government officials and citizens when instituting new energy infrastructures and technologies. Often theorized in normative terms, it is not clear whether and when social acceptance matters. This article explores the rollout of smart meters in Quebec, which proceeded despite significant opposition from municipalities, community groups and unions. Drawing on core concepts from punctu…
Marché, sécurité, environnement
Cet article porte sur le projet européen de créer une politique énergétique commune visant la libéralisation des marchés, la lutte aux changements climatiques et la sécurité de l’approvisionnement. Nous montrons comment la Commission européenne a développé un cadrage cognitif et normatif ( frame ) qui lie la sécurité énergétique et les changements climatiques aux compétences de l’Union européenne en matière de marché intérieur et de concurrence. …
L’embauche dans les départements de science politique francophone au Québec et au Canada. Un bilan des années 2000-20101
Entre 2000 et 2010, les départements de science politique des universités francophones du Québec et du Canada (Université Laval, Université de Montréal, Université du Québec à Montréal et Université d’Ottawa) ont embauché 81 nouveaux professeurs. Quelles étaient les caractéristiques de ces professeurs au moment de leur embauche ? Quel était leur parcours ? Où ont-ils obtenu leur doctorat ? Quelle est leur langue d’usage ? Dans quelles revues ont-…
Constructive Ambiguity
This article explores the paradox of constructive ambiguity. Based on a focused, longitudinal comparison of the European Union's energy and defence policies, it analyses the role played by strategies of ambiguity in European integration. Ambiguity is found to be an attractive strategy for political entrepreneurs when member state preferences are heterogeneous and the EU's legal basis is weak. It is likely to be effective, however, only if it is e…
Two Paths to Energy Security
The first G20 summit, held in Pittsburgh in the fall of 2009, highlighted the growing salience of energy security on the global agenda. The G20 leaders presented access diverse, reliable, affordable, and clean energy as critical for sustainable economic growth, and committed increasing the transparency and stability of energy markets, including strengthening the dialogue between producer and consumer countries. Reaffirming the objectives and prin…
Swiss Energy Policy and the Challenge of European Governance
The European Union establishes external relations with third countries in different ways. Network governance is considered as an organisational opening that provides for more cooperative flexibility and inclusion. In this article, I examine to what extent network governance enables Switzerland's inclusion in the European energy sector. I argue that, as the network governance of EU energy policy becomes more institutionalized – from the regulatory…
The Swiss energy policy elite
In the actor–centered institutionalist approach of Fritz Scharpf (1997), ‘actorconstellations’ constitute the crucial link between substantive policy analysis and interactionoriented policy research. This paper presents an attempt to conceptualize the ‘actor constellation’ in a given policy domain and to analyze it empirically with network analysis. The empirical context is provided by the Swiss energy policy elite in the late 1990s— an example o…
Decision-making in the Swiss Energy Policy Elite
This paper analyzes choices concerning the increase of energy efficiency made by the Swiss energy policy elite; it is based on interviews with 240 of its members. It starts from the assumption that choices depend on characteristics of the actors involved (their membership in policy coalitions, their core beliefs etc.), the characteristics of the instruments (in particular their familiarity and the extent to which they impose constraints upon the …
Etat, violence politique et interactions
La Suisse romande et la Suisse alémanique présentent des systèmes et des cultures politiques contrastés. Plus répressive de tradition, la Suisse alémanique est cependant plus ouverte au niveau de ses institutions politiques. Partant du constat que les identités des mouvements sociaux définissent des répertoires d'action propres, appelés ici “primaires”, qui les prédestinent à interagir soit avec les autorités et la police soit avec les institutio…
