Abstract

Social acceptance is one of the key determinants in implementing successful regulatory frameworks and policies. The past debate of social acceptance is centred around NIMBY (Not in My Own Backyard) which is closely correlated with the case of wind energy. More recent literature introduces three dimensions of social acceptance, namely socio-political, community and market acceptance. Justice factors are increasingly recognised as being important for understanding why social rejection produces the outcomes. In this chapter, this study examines the current literature on social acceptance and energy justice and extends the discussion about how much of the literature on social acceptance and energy justice had been derived from the Western conception of justice that promotes freedom, equality and participation.
