ABSTRACT

The year 2019 witnessed the gathering pace of a global climate movement, with millions of young people striking for climate action. While the contours of this activism are just beginning to emerge, the scale of the mobilisations to date suggest their consequences are likely to be profound – for participants, communities and the wider political environment. This paper looks to the literature on social movement consequences to consider the possible lasting effects of this climate activism for children and young people. In doing so, it seeks to advance more robust research engagement with the breadth of potential legacies, including those often overlooked or undervalued.

摘要

2019 年见证了全球气候运动的步伐加快，数百万年轻人为气候行动而罢工。虽然这种激进主义的轮廓才刚刚开始出现，但迄今为止的动员规模表明，其后果可能是深远的——对参与者、社区和更广泛的政治环境而言。本文着眼于社会运动后果的文献，以考虑这种气候激进主义对儿童和年轻人可能产生的持久影响。在此过程中，它寻求通过广泛的潜在遗产，包括那些经常被忽视或低估的遗产，推进更强有力的研究参与。
