Climate policy integration (CPI) is regarded in the literature as key to combatting climate change. It has been critically discussed to what extent climate policy is integrated in different policy fields at the European and the national level. In this paper, we analyze the expectations toward CPI from the perspective of stakeholders focusing on two fields in Austria — energy and land use. We combine CPI approaches with social-ecological transformation research, which highlights obstacles for CPI, which can be found in the polity, leading to conflicts between different actor groups or institutions. More specifically, we examine, through a process of co-production of knowledge together with stakeholder groups, how CPI functions in its categories of horizontal and vertical policy integration, cooperation and conflict, reporting, vision, uncertainties, and reflexivity. Results show that policy integration remains contested, alternative visions to economic growth are needed and communication with policy-makers needs to be improved. Furthermore, reflexive learning is central for the success of CPI. Finally, it matters who has access and who plays a role in governance structures. Co-production of knowledge can play a crucial role, but faces a challenging tension between being inclusive and losing its transformative capacities. A shift from a narrow focus on policy making to consider the limiting or enabling structural conditions for interaction between a wide variety of stakeholders is required. Instead of reflexive learning how to best accommodate the powerful interest groups, this could increase the space for reflexive and adaptive policy integration aimed at achieving normative climate targets.

从利益相关者的角度看气候政策整合：社会生态转型研究中知识的共同生产

气候政策整合 (CPI) 在文献中被视为应对气候变化的关键。气候政策在欧洲和国家层面的不同政策领域中的整合程度已被批判性地讨论过。在本文中，我们从利益相关者的角度分析了对 CPI 的期望，重点关注奥地利能源和土地利用两个领域。我们将 CPI 方法与社会生态转型研究相结合，这突出了 CPI 的障碍，这些障碍可以在政体中找到，导致不同行动者群体或机构之间的冲突。更具体地说，我们通过与利益相关者群体共同生产知识的过程，研究 CPI 在其横向和纵向政策整合、合作与冲突、报告、愿景、不确定性、和反射性。结果表明，政策整合仍然存在争议，需要经济增长的替代愿景，需要改善与决策者的沟通。此外，反思性学习是 CPI 成功的核心。最后，谁有权访问以及谁在治理结构中发挥作用很重要。知识的共同生产可以发挥关键作用，但在包容性和失去变革能力之间面临着具有挑战性的紧张关系。需要从对政策制定的狭隘关注转变为考虑各种利益相关者之间互动的限制性或有利的结构性条件。与其反思性地学习如何最好地适应强大的利益集团，这可以增加旨在实现规范气候目标的反思性和适应性政策整合的空间。
