实现国际商定的气候目标将需要人们以各种角色参与：作为家庭和社区的成员，作为有投票权的公民，作为员工和消费者。然而，到目前为止，各国政府制定的能源和气候政策往往回避这一问题，主要将这一挑战视为一项技术或经济任务，而不是社会任务。这项研究通过对政府和监管机构的关键文件进行语料库分析，以及与政策利益攸关方的定性访谈，考察了人们是如何在英国的能源和气候治理中形成概念的。研究发现，治理主要被视为一种技术或经济挑战，很少提到人。在讨论人的问题时，往往会使用经济学框架。政策利益相关者理解这种方法的问题，并主张更全面地理解治理中的人。他们认为，技术和经济框架是以市场为基础的能源政策、集中治理以及治理组织的培训、流程和文化的结果。这项研究的证据表明，需要对政策和治理进行改革，包括更好地利用社会研究，改革协商程序，限制能源市场化方法，更多地进行深思熟虑，以及更本地化的能源和气候战略。让人参与是建立强有力的脱碳治理进程的重要组成部分。最后，这项研究指出，有必要从政策实践者的内嵌知识中学习。
Meeting internationally-agreed climate goals will require the involvement of people, in various roles: as members of families and communities, as voting citizens, as employees and as consumers. Yet to date, energy and climate policy enacted by governments has tended to sidestep this issue, treating the challenge as primarily a technical or economic, rather than social, undertaking. This research examines how people have been conceptualized in energy and climate governance in the United Kingdom, through corpus analysis of key documents by government and regulatory bodies, and qualitative interviews with policy stakeholders. The research finds that governance is seen primarily as a technical or economic challenge, with little mention of people. Where people are discussed, an economic framing tends to be used. Policy stakeholders understand the problems of this approach, and argue for a more comprehensive understanding of people in governance. They see the technical and economic framing as a consequence of market-based energy policy, and centralized governance, as well as the training, processes and culture of governance organizations. Evidence from this study suggests that reforms are needed to policy and governance, including better use of social research, reforms to consultation processes, limits to marketized approaches to energy, greater deliberative engagement, and more localized energy and climate strategies. Including people is an essential part of building robust governance processes for decarbonization. Finally, this study points to the need to learn from the embedded knowledge of policy practitioners.
