Blog post on new research findings: transnational energy infrastructures

Transnational electricity grids are hardly discussed with the populations on-site that are affected by, for instance, land titling disputes and other localized effects of infrastructure construction. Their decision-making, planning and execution are highly asymmetrical: the rerouting of infrastructures via negotiation is an exception.

This is shown by the research results in the recently published article "Prefiguring politics: transregional energy infrastructures as a lens for the study of authoritarian practices" by Benjamin Schütze and Alke Jenss.
