This book is a philosophical critique of the economics of climate
change from both an ethical and philosophy of economics
perspective. Mitigating climate change is not so much a scientific
problem, but rather a political, social and above all an economic
problem. A future without greenhouse gas emissions requires a
radical transformation towards a sustainable low-carbon economy and
society. How this transformation could be achieved raises numerous
economic questions. Many of these questions remain untouched,
although economists are equipped with a suitable toolkit and
expertise. This book argues that economists have a social
responsibility to carry out more research on how global warming
could be stopped and that, ultimately, economic analysis of climate
change must be a political economic approach that treats the
economy as part of a wider social system. This approach will be of
interest to policy makers, educators, students and researchers in
support of more pluralism in economic research and teaching.
