1. 1. Fields of Gold : The Bioenergy Debate in International Organizations

   Författare :Magdalena Kuchler; Björn-Ola Linnér; Johan Hedrén; Eva Friman; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; bioenergy; biofuels; debate; discourse; concept; international organizations; international relations; FAO; IEA; IPCC; energy security; climate change; food security; food vs. fuel; bioenergi; biobränsle; debatt; diskurs; begrepp; internationella organisationer; internationella relationer; FAO; IEA; IPCC; energisäkerhet; klimatförändringar; livsmedelssäkerhet;

   Sammanfattning : The concept of producing energy from biomass has, for the last two decades, occupied attention of policy-makers, private industries, researchers and civil societies around the world. The highly contested and contingent character of the biofuel production, its entanglement in the nexus of three problematic issues of energy, climate and agriculture, as well as its injection into the current socioeconomic arrangements, is what makes it timely to analyse.
