I'm really glad to have just published (online version, open access here) the paper: "Nonuse and hypocritical use of strategic narratives in Megaprojects: The case of the Florence high-speed railway", Policy&Society. The paper is part of a Special Issue on discursive and institutional perspectives on megaprojects.
