International workshop and special issue on Climate and Energy Governance and the Future of Europe
30 Sept – 1 Oct 2019 at the Istituto Affari Internazionali (IAI), Rome
An international workshop building on a previous GOVTRAN call for papers for a special issue on Climate and Energy Governance and the Future of Europe. The event by is invitation only, but we do have some flexibility for external participants. For more information contact govtran@govtran.eu
We have invited authors of 15 different papers to present their work, examining recent developments in EU climate and energy governance and policy in the context of the challenges and opportunities raised by the EU ‘crisis conglomerate’. We are particularly interested in exploring five main underlying factors: implications of geo-political power shifts, growing challenges of democratic legitimacy and accountability, declining national problem-solving capacity, increasing divisions within and among nation-states/EU Member States, and changing parameters of political discourse in times of social and privatized mass media.
The Special Issue will possibly be published with the Journal of European Public Policy. Programme coming soon.
