Abstract

Kreuter offers a timely analysis of non-strategic framing of Climate Engineering in the academic discussion. The chapter present the results of an empirical analysis of a sample of peer-reviewed academic journal articles from all disciplines. While framing is found to be rare across the sample, frames appearing in the sample are highly diverse. Furthermore, Kreuter highlights that many documents present a combination of counteracting frames which provide a curious tension inside the individual document. Kreuter concludes the chapter by discussing the roles of interdisciplinarity and the discussion across various CE approaches for academic framing of CE.
