Abstract

This issue of EconPol Forum brings together several economists and policymakers, to not only critically discuss these important issues, but also to offer some helpful concrete policy suggestions. In particular, the questions of whether the green transition is market-friendly and stimulates economic growth, how the costs of the green transition can be made politically and socially acceptable, and whether the green transition promotes global cooperation are explored in depth.
