The ‘old’ industrial regions of Europe: ‘Green transitions’ or just the transitions inherent to capitalist business as usual?
反思近期研究,探讨欧洲老工业区及全球经济中绿色转型的可能性,认为全球政治经济变化不仅阻碍了老工业区的公正绿色转型,也威胁到更广泛的绿色转型。
Reflecting on recent research and publications, I consider the possibilities for ‘green transitions’ in Europe’s ‘old’ industrial regions (OIRs) and more widely in the global economy. The wider changes in the global political economy are not only undermining any possibility of a ‘just’ green transition in Europe’s OIRs but that of green transitions more generally.
