Wind, power, and the situatedness of community engagement

Abstract: Jeju, an island in Korea, became a place to site wind turbines with an unusually high level of public acceptance. Based on interviews, media analyses, and policy research, we found that the collective memory of socio-economic deprivation enabled community engagement to matter to residents, the provincial government, and environmental activists. It was within socio-historically contextualized processes of articulating the vision of a "good" society that an actual form of community engagement, however inadequate… Show more

“…Many studies draw attention to the aspect of a fair planning process and local involvement and participation [60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73].

The body of literature that applies this framework is growing [35][36][37][38][39][40]: for example, Biddau et al [35] analyzed the social representation of sustainability and the relevance of collective identity in a grassroots movement, showing the original continuity between community, individual and societal planes in the link between emotional coping, political engagement and the vision of the future. Along the same line, Kim et al [36] analyzed the way in which collective memory influences the acceptance of new technology in a community, stressing the cultural impact of place attachment.…”
