Social Ecological Economist Clive Spash on the upcoming Paris Climate Talks

Call in at 503-231-8187!


Guest Clive Spash is an economist who writes, researches and teaches on public politcy with an emphasis on economic and environmental interactions.He is currently Chair of Public Policy and Governance in the 
Department of Socio-Economics at Vienna University of Economics and Business in Austria. His main interests are interdisciplinary research on human behavior, environmental valuses and the transformation of the world political economy to a more socially and environmentally just system.

Spash has written extensive critiques of the dominant "market-based" approaches to dealing with global climate change, including carbon trading. His article Better Growth, Helping the Paris COP-out? Fallacies and Omissions of the New climate Economy Report dissects the flawed thinking and approaches that will likely prevail at the upcoming climate talks in Paris.You can find it here: https://ideas.repec.org/p/wiw/wiwsre/sre-disc-2014_04.html 
From his website http://www.clivespash.org/ :

This [interdisciplinary approach] has also involved moving away from mainstream environmental and resource economics, looking at links with natural sciences, understanding applied ethics, exploring models of democracy and public participation in political science, and linking with social psychology to develop models of human behaviour and motivation. In turn this has led me to question the foundations of accepted knowledge in both the natural and social sciences. As a result I have been been exploring a philosophy of science that combines and accepts realism, sociology of science, critical analysis and deconstructs the fact-value dichotomy.  For some time now, I have pursued this interdisciplinary and integrative work within the context of ecological economics and more recently through the evolving agenda of a politically aware and emancipatory “Social Ecological Economics“.
