Editor's Note:
Why have democratic governments failed to take serious steps to reduce carbon emissions despite dire warnings and compelling evidence of the profound and growing threat posed by global warming?Most of the writing on global warming is by scientists, academics, environmentalists, and journalists. Taft brings a fresh perspective through the insight he gained as an elected politician who had an insider's eyewitness view of the role of the oil industry in Alberta. His answer, in brief: The oil industry has captured most key democratic institutions in the province, and many at the federal level as well.Taft begins his book with a perceptive observer's account of a recent neglected court case which laid bare the tactics and techniques of the industry, its insiders and lobbyists. He casts dramatic new light on exactly how Alberta think tanks, universities, corporate lobbyists, politicians, and bureaucrats are working together to pursue the oil industry's agenda.He offers a brisk tour of the recent work of scholars who have developed the concepts of the deep state and institutional capture to understand how one rich industry can override and defeat the public interest at virtually every turn.Taft views global warming and weakened democracy as two symptoms of the same problem -- the loss of democratic institutions to corporate influence and control. He sees citizen engagement and direct action by the public as the only response that can unravel big oil's deep state, in Alberta and across Canada.
