About

Climate change raises common issues for political theorists, legal scholars, philosophers and economists. But as the debate over the 2006 Stern Review on the Economics of Climate Change showed, the disciplines take distinct perspectives.

Climate Ethics and Climate Economics is a series of ESRC-funded workshops which seeks to bring together political theorists and philosophers with an interest in climate economics, and economists and legal scholars, from inside and outside academia, interested in climate ethics. The chief goal of this series is to get economists and legal scholars talking with philosophers and political theorists about the ethical foundations of their arguments.

Interdisciplinary dialogue on climate change matters, because economics, political theory and philosophy all have strengths but also blind spots, and these have contributed to the strikingly different recommendations they have given policy makers.
