Description

Explore the complex realities of China's role in the global climate political economy with this volume from the China Policy Series by Routledge. Understanding how China approaches environmental governance is a significant challenge because the nation acts as a paradox actor on the world stage. This book examines the contradictions within China's strategy. While the country previously held a suspicious stance regarding the scientific certainty of climate change, it has since become a signatory and firm supporter of the Kyoto Protocol. The text analyzes how China navigates its refusal to accept emission cutting obligations while simultaneously taking a leading role in the development of renewable energies and carbon trading businesses. Readers will gain insight into the tensions between China's criticism of Western hypocrisy and its continued close cooperation with international partners. This book provides a necessary look at a nation that is both a major emitter and a leader in green technology, making it an essential resource for those studying global economics and environmental policy.
