    Green Keynesianism and the global financial crisis by ESS author Kyla Tienhaara

    10 January 2019 / Comments Off on Green Keynesianism and the global financial crisis by ESS author Kyla Tienhaara

    Tienhaara, K. (2018). Green Keynesianism and the global financial crisis. New York, NY: Routledge. It is widely accepted that limiting climate change to 2°C will require substantial and sustained investments in low-carbon technologies and infrastructure. However, the dominance of market fundamentalism in economic thinking for the past three decades has meant that governments have generally viewed large spending programs as politically undesirable. In this context, the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) represented a huge opportunity for proponents of public investment in environmental projects or “Green Keynesianism”.

    OPEN ACCESS book by ESS members – Governing climate change: Polycentricity in action?

    15 July 2018 / Comments Off on OPEN ACCESS book by ESS members – Governing climate change: Polycentricity in action?

    Jordan, A., Huitema, D., van Asselt, H., & Forster, J. (Eds.). (2018). Governing climate change: Polycentricity in action?. Cambridge, UK: Cambridge University Press. Climate change governance is in a state of enormous flux. New and more dynamic forms of governing are appearing around the international climate regime centred on the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

About ESS

The Environmental Studies Section of the International Studies Association (ISA) was founded in 1983. The section seeks a better understanding of feedbacks between human and natural systems within global, regional, and national contexts. We promote interactions within the scholarly community and encourage member engagement with practitioners and policy makers when appropriate. ESS supports innovative research, theoretical diversity, interdisciplinary perspectives, and the application of a wide array of methodologies for analyzing international environmental issues and global environmental governance.
