Dear colleagues, We invite paper proposals for our workshop “Governing the EU’s Climate and Energy Transition in Turbulent Times”, which will take place as part of the European Consortium for Political Research Joint Sessions in Toulouse, 14–17 April 2020.
The central aim of the workshop is to assess the evolution of EU climate and energy governance against a backdrop of increasing urgency to move to decarbonisation, stagnating European integration, and broader global trends towards political, social and economic turbulence. We invite papers that examine how the EU is governing the climate and energy transition within this context, why it governs in this way, and how this affects its role in the world and the shape of European integration into the future. Possible paper themes include: - How and to what extent recent climate science assessments (e.g. the IPCC 1.5 degree report) have shaped EU climate and energy governance responses; - Recent developments in the evolution of the EU’s governance of climate and energy, including the enactment of the 2030 legislative package; - How trends towards integration and disintegration are shaping EU climate and energy governance and vice versa, including the respective roles of the EU institutions and member states; - The EU’s role in bilateral and multilateral climate diplomacy in the context of global trends towards turbulence discussed above; - The EU’s role in global energy governance and the development of EU external energy relations. The deadline for submissions is 5 November 2019.
