Factual and normative dissent in media debates about climate policy

Author

  • Gregor Betz

Abstract

This is a brief, modest comment on Schmidt and Schäfer’s discourse analysis of dominant normative views in the climate policy debate. I take their empirical findings as a starting point to reflect on the way democratic societies should handle normative and factual dissent in policy deliberation.
