Public resistance to climate policy amid energy crisis and populism: The case of the European Green Deal in the Czech Republic

This paper examines negative opinions on the European Green Deal (EGD) by combining critical discourse analysis of three Czech media and public opinion data analysis based on a representative sample of 821 Czech adults.

Gender and eco-domesticity: Are sustainable consumption and a return to the home emancipatory in Czechia?

Recently, there has been renewed interest in homemaking and domestic practices and the revival of domesticity has become related with pro-environmental values and sustainable lifestyles in Western societies. The turn to domesticity tends to be associated with women. While some authors warn of a return to traditional gender roles within the household, others view eco-domesticity as a feminist project that values domestic practices.

Mediální diskurz o Green Dealu z hlediska energetiky

The Green Deal, a European Commission initiative aimed at protecting the climate and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, has sparked controversy in the Czech public debate. An analysis of the media discourse on the Green Deal from an energy perspective shows that the Green Deal is perceived mostly negatively. In the media, it has been labelled with condemnatory statements and negative characterisations, especially by leading Czech politicians. Czech companies, municipalities and experts have a more favourable v…
