Short description:
This book redesigns environmental governance for a sustainability transition, helping academics and decision-makers truly understand the socio-economic impacts of policy.
MoreLong description:
In Complexity Economics for Environmental Governance, Jean-Fran&&&231;ois Mercure reframes environmental policy and provides a rigorous methodology necessary to tackle the complexity of environmental policy and the transition to sustainability. The book offers a detailed account of the deficiencies of environmental economics and then develops a theory of innovation and macroeconomics based on complexity theory. It also develops a new foundation for evidence-based policy-making using a Risk-Opportunity Analysis applied to the sustainability transition. This multidisciplinary work was developed in partnership with prominent natural scientists and economists as well as active policy-makers with the aim to revolutionize thinking in the face of the full complexity of the sustainability transition, and to show how it can best be governed to minimize its distributional impacts. The book should be read by academics and policy-makers seeking new ways to think about environmental policy-making.
'Jean-Francois Mercure is in the vanguard of experts seeing the economy in a new way: not as a predictable machine, but as an ever-changing ecosystem. His insights will be valuable to anyone who wants to bring about real-world change. This book is an essential guide to the new economics of climate change.' Simon Sharpe, Deputy Director, Policy campaigns, COP26 Unit, UK Cabinet Office
