The American Academy of Political and Social Science (AAPSS) and SAGE Publishing are co-hosting a Moynihan Prize event: a webinar and panel discussion focused on international economic and regulatory approaches to environmental policy. The virtual event titled “A Turning Point for International Climate Policy? New Approaches to Environmental and Economic Cooperation” will be held on Thursday, May 13, 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm ET.
Robert Keohane, Professor of International Affairs at Princeton University will moderate a discussion with Nobel laureate, Yale University professor of economics, and Moynihan Prize recipient, William Nordhaus. Dr. Nordhaus’ 2018 Nobel Prize in Economics capped off a decades-long career spent designing macroeconomic solutions to climate change. He has been at the leading edge of pioneering policies like carbon taxes, emissions trading, and climate clubs--policies that have been thrust to the forefront of the international dialogue as the EU, US, and China accelerate their pursuit of mutual decarbonization.
They will be joined by panelists:
- David Victor, Professor, Center for Global Transformation Endowed Chair in Innovation and Public Policy, University of California, San Diego
- Kathryn Harrison, Professor of Political Science, The University of British Columbia
- Rachel Kyte, Dean, The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University
The discussion will focus on carbon pricing approaches, climate clubs and contemporary climate policy and will be followed by a Q&A session with the panelists.
