Title
Fostering the Green Economy - Any Lessons from the Protectionist Past?
Keywords
As economies exit the mayhem caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, they are ; turning their attention to climate change. Following a path to Greening the ; economy has become the aspiration among a broad spectrum of civil society and ; policymakers. Climate change is moving economies into states of considerable ; disequilibrium. The subsequent paths of adjustment from the shocks associated ; with climate change are not easily discerned. Policymakers are, however, ; attempting to put in place initiatives that will foster Greening of the economy as ; well as securing their country’s technological leadership and the benefits arising ; from the coming transformation. The policies to foster the latter are often ; protectionist. Despite the lure of protection, historical experience suggests that ; it will not achieve its goals over the long run and may provide the incentive to ; create future contenders for technological leadership.
