2 Has Ecocentrism Already Won in France? Soft Consensus On the Environmentalist Grand Narrative Jean-Paul Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS CNRS Institut d Éd Études Politiques Grenoble - France Jean-Paul.Bozonnet@iep Paul.Bozonnet@iep-grenoble.fr Site:
3 Objectives Environmental issues are coming to the forefront of media and politics in France. Nicolas Hulot during the presidential campaign elections (2007) «Grenelle of Environnement», an all out program of environmental public policies Hypothesises There is a quasi-consensus about environmental values in France, and more fundamentally an environmentalist weltanschauung. Consequently, the old grand narrative embedded in the biblical story or in the capitalist or socialist ideologies (Lyotard) has dramatically faded in favour of a new ecological paradigm. In short, ecocentrism has already won the ideological battle in France. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 2
4 Methodology Study based on the European Value Survey (EVS) This international survey was created in The questionnaire measures values as family, friends, jobs, politics, social capital, xenophobia, The 2008 EVS included for the first time the ecological paradigm (NEP, Dunlap and alii). This paper is restricted to the case of France. That makes 3071 face to face interviews. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 3
5 I. The New Ecological Paradigm: the Five Stages of a Grand Narrative General idea: Ancient biblical narrative => the subject of history is God or Providence Renaissance grand narrative => the hero is the human being Industrial grand narrative capitalist story => the captain of industry (Saint-Simon) socialist story => the proletariat (Marx) And who is the subject of history for the post-industrial grand narrative? Dunlap & alii suggest that it is nature. There was a drastic ideological shift in the seventies: Nature is no more an instrumental value in the grand narrative, but becomes an ultimate central value. Transition from anthropocentrism to ecocentrism. Indicators of EVS to measure the importance of this grand narrative are drawn from the NEP of Dunlap & alii (2000). Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 4
6 The Contents of the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) (Dunlap, Van Liere, Mertig & Jones, 2000) It includes five dimensions: 1. The awareness of the fragility of nature s balance; 2. The knowledge of the limits to growth; 3. The rejection of exemptionalism ; 4. The refusal of anthropocentrism; 5. The belief in a possible major ecological crisis. These dimensions form five stages of the ecological grand narrative. The were 6 questions in the 2008 EVS reserved to measure the NEP. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 5
7 1 st stage (I): The Awareness of the Fragility of Nature s Balance "When humans interfere with nature it often produces disastrous consequences" 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 61% Agree strongly 34% 4% Agree Disagree Strongly disagree 1% 1% Don't know or no answ er 95% of French people agree => strong consensus on this idea. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 6
8 1 st stage (II): The Awareness of the Fragility of Nature s Balance "The balance of nature is strong enough to cope with the impacts of modern industrial nations 60% 50% 50% 40% 30% 31% 20% 10% 4% 12% 2% 0% Agree strongly Agree Disagree Strongly disagree Don't know or no answ er 81% disagree with this statement => another evidence of quasi-consensus contrary to the traditional anthropocentric paradigm which considers nature as an indestructible and inexhaustible resource. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 7
9 2 st stage: the Knowledge of the Limits of Growth "We are approaching the limit of the number of people the earth can support 40% 36% 35% 31% 30% 25% 20% 15% 10% 15% 11% 7% 5% 0% Agree strongly Agree Disagree Strongly disagree Don't know or no answ er Only 46% of French people agree But this indicator is not relevant in France, because of the historical obsessive fear of depopulation in this country, and the Malthusian connotation of this sentence. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 8
10 3 rd stage: the Human Exemptionalism (humans are not submitted to natural laws as animals) Human ingenuity will insure that the earth remains livable 40% 35% 37% 35% 30% 25% 20% 15% 11% 13% 10% 5% 3% 0% Agree strongly Agree Disagree Strongly disagree Don't know or no answ er 48% of French people agree with this statement: they are still inside anthropocentric allegiance on this dimension of the grand narrative. This high rate is probably due to a Saint-Simonian and communist reminiscences and the resistance of the technical ideology, the engineer culture. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 9
11 4 th stage: Ecocentrism 45% 40% 35% 30% 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% 7% Agree strongly Humans were meant to rule over the rest of nature 17% 41% 34% Agree Disagree Strongly disagree 2% Don't know or no answer This dimension of NEP refers to the biblical grand narrative. 75% of French people disagree. This have a strong sociological signification: ecocentrism goes hand to hand with secularisation, and the fading of the structured religious discourse. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 10
12 5 th stage: The Belief in a Possible Major Ecological Crisis 50% 45% 40% 35% 30% 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% 45% Agree strongly If things continue on their present course, we will soon experience a major ecological catastrophe. 42% 9% Agree Disagree Strongly disagree 1% 3% Don't know or no answ er The end of the postmodern ecological story is tragic: an environmental disaster! 87% of French people think it will likely happen. That is a quasi-consensus. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 11
13 II. An environmentalist soft consensus? It is possible to synthesize the results of the 5 previous questions (6 except that about overpopulation). We have constructed a cumulative index of ecocentrism/anthropocentrism with 14 degrees. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 12
14 Pourcentage of French people acccording to their index position 18% 16% 15% 15% 16% 14% 13% 12% 10% 8% 9% 10% 7% 6% 5% 5% 4% 4% 2% 0% 0% 0% 0% 1% % of French people are above the average, on the side of ecocentrism => quasi-consensus? Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 13
15 Rather a soft consensus A significant part of French population keep its ancient conceptions of the world. Moreover, most people do not adhere to the entire ecological grand narrative, but only to some statements among the 5 dimensions of NEP. This implies two consequences: The scale of Dunlap & alii is not homogeneous. Ecological narrative is not strongly structured as religious or industrial narratives were in the modern times. There are many contradictions inside this narrative for a same person, => cognitive dissonance. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 14
16 Last, but not the least, there is a gap between ecological ideas and actions 40% 35% 30% 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% 12% agree strongly "I would give part of my income if I were certain that the money would be used to prevent environental pollution" 38% 25% 22% agree disagree disagree strongly 3% 47% of French people would refuse to give money for the protection of the environment. Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 15
17 This means that the NEP does not overcome the economic necessity, and remains a poor motivation to act. So it is a soft consensus in a time of ideology of low intensity Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 16
18 Conclusion What is the social meaning of the soft consensus on NEP? There was a radical shift of fondamental values since the sixties in France: ecological paradigm in place of religious, humanistic, Saint-simonian, Marxist grand narrative, linked to the End of ideologies, the secularization, And this was a silent revolution: no strikes, no street fights, no political debate Why? Maybe it is because, globally, values has lost their importance, and none of these really matters any longer in the post-modern world. Brave new world is a pragmatic world. The only things that matter are practical consequences, and on this point, the French society is far from consensus! Ecocentrism in France - J.P. Bozonnet PACTE-CNRS - IEP Grenoble - ESA 9th Conference - Lisbon Sept 17
