应对气候变化，向可持续发展转型——中国和世界的未来

欧洲/英国中国经济学会2021年会

-征文通知-

气候变化是这个时代面临的最大挑战之一，它威胁着全球数十亿人的生命和生计。从本质上讲，应对气候变化有助于实现更可持续的发展。2015年巴黎气候变化大会(COP)达成了一个重要的政治成果，190多个国家在此承诺通过减少温室气体排放和增强对气候影响的抵御能力，采取积极措施应对气候变化。根据《巴黎协定》，到2030年，全球碳排放量应在2010年的基础上减少45%。

作为世界上最大的二氧化碳排放国和最大的市场之一，中国最近承诺到2030年达到二氧化碳排放峰值，并在2060年前实现碳中和。中国的碳减排承诺不仅将在应对全球气候变化方面发挥重要作用，还将影响世界其他地区如何从化石燃料转向更可持续的低碳和循环经济。在令人失望的第25次缔约方会议之后，目前气候行动的希望被寄托于2021年11月在格拉斯哥举行的第26次缔约方会议上。作为第26次缔约方会议的后续活动，欧洲/英国中国经济学会、爱丁堡大学商学院、赫瑞瓦特大学爱丁堡商学院和苏格兰商务与交流孔子学院将于2021年12月4日至5日联合组织一次在线学术会议，将国际学者、政策制定者和行业专业人士聚集在一起，展示和分享他们在应对气候变化以加速可持续发展相关问题上的研究。现面向海内外广大学者征集围绕本主题研讨的学术论文。欢迎赐稿！

一、征稿议题

CALL FOR PAPERS

13th Chinese Economic Association (Europe) and 32th CEA (UK) Annual Conference

The conference theme: “Tackling Climate Change and Transition to Sustainable Development - The Future of China and the World”

Date: 4-5th December 2021

Venue: Virtual

Co-organizers:

CEA Europe/UK; University of Edinburgh; Heriot-Watt University

BACKGROUND & THEMES

Climate change is one of the biggest challenges of our times, and it threatens the lives and livelihoods of billions of people around the globe. In essence, tackling climate change enables more sustainable development. The 2015 Paris climate change conference (COP) was a momentous political outcome as more than 190 nations have committed to undertake ambitious efforts to combat climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and becoming more resilient to climate impacts. Under Paris Agreement, the world should cut carbon emissions by 45% from 2010 levels by 2030. As one of the world’s largest emitters of carbon dioxide and biggest markets, China recently pledged to reach peak carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and become carbon neutral before 2060. China’s green commitments will not only play a major role in combatting global climate change but also in shaping how the rest of the world progresses with its transition away from fossil fuels to a more sustainable low-carbon and circular economy. After a disappointing COP25, the hopes for decisive climate action now reside on a better outcome of COP26 which take place in Glasgow in November 2021. Taking place in the follow-up to COP26, CEA (Europe/UK), University of Edinburgh Business School, Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh Business School and Scottish Confucius Institute for Business & Communication are jointly organising an online academic conference to bring together international academics, policy makers and industry professionals, to provide them with the opportunity to present and share their research and interests on issues relating to tackling climate change to accelerate sustainable development.

Submissions are encouraged from scholars and research students that use different theoretical, empirical and experimental approaches to understand sustainable development from different perspectives, including (but not limited to) economics, finance, innovation, strategy, management, entrepreneurship and environmental science. While not exhaustive, the following list suggests possible issues that would be appropriate to address in this conference:

Pathways to a sustainable economy, including sector-specific studies
Assessing, pricing and managing climate and environmental risk exposures
The financial implications of ESG investing
Big data and artificial intelligence in climate finance
Accounting for sustainability and responsible investing
The links between energy/commodities and financial markets
Carbon markets and climate derivatives
Climate stress tests
The financing of the transition (such as climate finance, fintech, incentives, fiscal policy)
Measuring, managing, and monetizing the impact of sustainability
Climate change and corporate financial policies
Inclusive green growth to address poverty, unemployment and inequality
Financing renewable and emerging technologies
The interplay between industrial policy, trade policy and sustainability
Economic, social and political transformations
General equilibrium modelling of the interaction of climate risk and economy
The land, water, energy, food nexus and biological resources and sustainable growth
Governance and sustainability
Regulatory issues and challenges in addressing climate change

ABOUT CEA

Chinese Economic Association (Europe), CEA (Europe) was launched in 2008 in Oslo. The new association was intended as a major expansion of activities by the CEA (UK) and was established as an independent academic organization in association with the CEA (UK). The main objective of the CEA (Europe) is to promote scholarly exchanges and encourage academic leadership associated with Chinese economic and business studies in Europe. Since the establishment of the CEA (Europe), five annual conferences in association with the CEA (UK) have been held in various locations in Europe starting with its inaugural conference in 2009 in Dublin, Ireland.

欧洲中国经济学会（CEA Europe）于2008年在挪威奥斯陆成立，CEA（Europe）是英国中国经济学会在欧洲的重要扩展和延伸。CEA（Europe）的主要目标是促进学术交流，并担负起在欧洲的中国相关经济和商业研究的带头作用。自2009年在爱尔兰都柏林举行的首届会议以来，CEA（Europe）已在欧洲各地与CEA（Europe）联合举办了多次年度会议。

The CEA (UK) was launched in 1988 and has since become one of the leading organisations in the UK promoting research on China. Its past annual conferences have attracted wide-ranging attention from academic institutions, government organisations, banks and industries, alongside with the media in the UK and China. Prominent speakers have included ministers from the Chinese and British governments, the Chinese ambassadors, and eminent academic figures of international repute including Nobel laureates in economics. Papers from these conferences have been published in leading economics and business journals, in edited books, and in the CEA (UK)’s official journal, Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies, with Taylor & Francis as the publisher. Since 2001, the CEA (UK) has run parallel annual conferences in the UK and in one of the key universities in China.

英国中国经济学会（CEA UK）于1988年成立，自此成为英国推动中国研究的国际领先学术组织之一。CEA的历年会议吸引了来自全球的高水平学术机构，政府组织，产业界，银行界，以及中英媒体界的广泛关注, 自2001年以来，（CEA UK）会各在英国和中国的一所著名学府举办年度平行会议。
