Focusing on political dimensions, Alex Lo explores the discourse of carbon trading in this country. As a socialist market economy, China emerges as an exception, where liberal forms of political and market norms do not prevail. The author provides a review of the policy development process and institutional issues about the construction of carbon markets in China. He also presents a critique about the political origins and drivers of the national preference for market institutions, and narratives about the relationship between national power and climate change action.EthnologyAsiaCultureSustainabilityEnvironmental policyDevelopment economicsAsiaPolitics and governmentEnvironmental economicsAsian CultureSustainabilityEnvironmental PolicyDevelopment EconomicsAsian PoliticsEnvironmental EconomicsEthnologyCulture.Sustainability.Environmental policy.Development economics.AsiaPolitics and government.Environmental economics.Asian Culture.Sustainability.Environmental Policy.Development Economics.Asian Politics.Environmental Economics.363.738/7460951BUS099000POL023000POL044000bisacshLo Alexauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut894181BOOK9910255058903321Carbon Trading in China1997381UNINA
