Grantham Seminar introduced and chaired by Dr. Robert Falkner<\/strong><\/h4>\n

This seminar starts from the puzzling observation that two countries from the global South (Costa Rica and Vietnam) with different political systems in terms of their state-society relations and historical records of national green politics have both produced ambitious formal commitments towards substantial green transformations across the economic, ecological and social dimensions.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Thus the seminar will (1) analyse the role of different change agents – focusing in particular on the state and its bureaucratic apparatus – in this process and will (2) ask under which conditions formal commitment is actually turned into substantial action and (3) trace trade-offs and barriers at various scales towards effective policy implementation. Special attention will be paid to the role of national elites, state bureaucracies and state-society relations. The lecture will thus theoretically build on older work of the developmental state analysing and critically discussing more recent work on environmental authoritarianism.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
