本論文は、イタリアのチヴィタヴェッキアを事例に、石炭火力発電所に依存する地域において、異なる労働組合間の連携がどのようにして防御的姿勢から積極的な公正な移行戦略へと転換したかを分析。組合間の連合パワーが炭素ロックインを打破し、雇用創出とクリーンエネルギーインフラを両立する政策実現に寄与したことを示す。
English
This paper analyzes a case in Civitavecchia, Italy, where heterogeneous union coalitions shifted from defensive opposition to demanding an affirmative just transition, combining job creation and clean energy infrastructure. It argues that strategic coalitional power can disrupt carbon lock-in and drive local policy implementation, though upscaling and institutional support remain necessary.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本では、石炭火力のフェーズアウトや地域の雇用確保をめぐる労働組合の役割が議論されている。本論文は、労働組合連合が公正な移行を主導する可能性を示唆し、日本のエネルギー政策と地域労働市場の転換に示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
This case contributes to global just transition scholarship by demonstrating how local union agency can overcome political inertia. It offers empirical evidence for the role of coalitional power in challenging fossil fuel incumbency, relevant for countries like Germany, Poland, and Japan facing coal phase-out.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Deep decarbonisation requires overcoming carbon lock-in and prioritising green ‘phase-in’ over necessary ‘phase-out’ strategies in fossil fuel-intensive energy and industrial sectors. This article analyses a case of localised transformative agency in Civitavecchia (Rome metropolitan area, Italy), a territory dependent on a major coal-fired power plant. Integrating a power resource framework with literature in environmental labour studies, we examine how a heterogeneous inter-union collaboration (CGIL, UIL, USB) achieved wider cooperation and subsequently shifted strategy from defensive opposition to demanding an affirmative just transition combining job creation and clean energy infrastructure. Using extensive qualitative data, we argue that strategic mobilisation of coalitional power is essential for union renewal and for challenging the structural privilege of incumbent fossil fuel capital. Localised democratic experimentation by unions can successfully disrupt national-level political inertia, driving policy implementation for high-road job creation and local environmental sustainability. But upscaling and institutional support for such struggles remain necessary to secure these outcomes.
