ABSTRACT

The thirtieth anniversary is an opportunity to take stock of Environmental Politics. To consider where the journal and – by extension – the academic study of environmental politics should go, we must have insight into where it has been. We aim to generate conversation about three questions. The first asks who publishes in the journal – whose voices are prominent and whose are missing – and in what ways this has changed over time. The second asks what is published in the journal – what topics receive attention and by extension what is less visible. Again, we are especially attentive to how these topics have changed over time. The third question is how environmental politics itself is understood and how this might have changed. Much of our examination is based upon content analysis and data mining of a comprehensive dataset including authors, abstracts, and full-text of 1007 articles published in the journal.

摘要

三十周年纪念是一个评估环境政治的机会。要考虑该期刊以及对环境政治的学术研究应往何处发展，我们必须了解它的去向。我们旨在就三个问题进行对话。第一个问题询问谁在该杂志上发表文章-谁的声音突出并且谁的声音丢失-以及随着时间的变化这是什么方式。第二个问题询问期刊上发表了什么内容-哪些主题受到关注，而从广义上讲哪些内容不那么明显。同样，我们特别关注这些主题随时间的变化。第三个问题是如何理解环境政治本身，以及这种状况可能会如何改变。我们的大部分检查都是基于内容分析和对包括作者在内的综合数据集的数据挖掘，
