‘Fractious realities’: a critical re-assemblage of hybrid-discourses mobilised in the emergence of UK shale gas development

The debates and discussions (discourses) surrounding shale gas in the United Kingdom (UK) far outstrip any physical development of the potential energy source. The UK sits on a significant potential resource of 1329tcf. (Andrews, 2013) of shale gas, yet there are increasingly polarised positions on...
