‘Learning by Doing’ in Global Carbon Markets: Making a Virtue of Vice
International Workshop
Venue: Edinburgh Law School
Date: June 12th 2015
Call for Papers
Learning by doing (LBD) has been a familiar refrain in the development of the EU’s climate change policy, especially its emissions trading scheme (ETS). Initially deployed to describe an interim period of experimentation, with the ongoing ineffectiveness of European climate policy the term risks being used to mask policy failings, making a virtue of vice by deferring the delivery of a successful climate change policy. This one-day workshop seeks to explore the concept of LBD and consider its implication for climate governance in the EU and beyond.
Papers are welcomed from colleagues, in particular early career researchers. Please send abstracts of around 250 words to globalcarbonmarkets@gmail.com by 20 April 2015. Please direct queries to http://n.ghaleigh@ed.ac.uk.
