Programme descriptionThis programme is an opportunity for in depth study into the interactions between politicians, experts, mass media and the public, and how this interaction influences how contemporary environmental problems are perceived, described and coped with. Various forms of communication between these actors, authorities, international organisations, NGOs and business representatives are placed in particular focus, emphasizing how interests, powers, and expert knowledge shape the way key environmental hazards are perceived and acted upon locally, nationally, and globally. The gap between scientific expertise on the one hand, and practical environmental administration on the other, is further analyzed, where the issue of how to bridge this gap is given high priority.
