Routledge - The Political Economy of Low Carbon Resilient Development

Explore the complexities of climate policy with The Political Economy of Low Carbon Resilient Development. This Routledge publication examines how policies and financing decisions have shaped low carbon resilient development within least developed countries over the last decade. As governments implement climate resilient actions, they follow different paths. Some are guided by international frameworks like the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), while others develop independent approaches to planning and implementation. This book looks at these diverse methods to understand the underlying assumptions regarding climate change solutions. Readers will gain insight into the normative assessments that dictate which actors are considered most appropriate for climate action. By analyzing these regional implementations, the text provides a clear view of the political and economic factors driving global climate resilience strategies. It is an essential resource for those studying economic policy and development in the context of environmental change.
