| Summary: | This book explores how China's media narrate climate policy and climate change. With the rapid growth of economy and carbon emissions, China has been seen as having a key role in dressing climate change and receives substantial attention from the media. In the Chinese coverage, climate change issues can be interpreted as various concerns and ideas involving the dimensions of the economy, energy and emissions, public involvement, science and ecology, and responsibility. In this sense, a discourse approach can be used to understand how the newspapers construct the climate change discourse and discourse networks in the coverage. This study selects three different newspapers in China, namely People’s Daily, China Daily and Southern Weekend. This book will interest scholars of Chinese politics, environmentalists, and media studies scholars. Dr Sidan Wang is a lecturer at the Institute of International Relations, China Foreign Affairs University. He received his PhD in Politics at the University of Exeter in 2018.
