The Economics of Climate Change Policies
In its latest Assessment Report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007) projects that without further action the global average surface t- perature would rise by a further 1. 8–4. 0°C until the end of this century. But even if the rise in temperature could be limited to the lower end of this range, irreversible and possibly catastrophic changes are likely to occur. Consequently, the protection of the earth’s atmosphere requires substantial efforts to reduce CO and other green- 2 house gas emissions – especially in countries with very high per capita emissions. To limit the imminent rise in temperature, in the Kyoto-Protocol, the European Union has committed itself ...
Distorted Time Preferences and Structural Change in the Energy Industry
The present study is a slightly revised version of my PhD thesis which was accepted at the Economics Department of Dresden University of Technology in July 2008. It has a long and a short history. For it began, as suggested theme, as a fundamental evaluation of evolutionary economics for ecological economics, asking, especially, for what the two ?elds actually constitutes and, eventually, relates. In several years of unfruitful dwelling, however, neither of these two young, non-mainstream ?elds proved as constituted at a fundamental level as yet. Rather, ecological economics, founded at the end of the 1980s as an attempt to combine social and natural s- ence approaches(in particular economic...
Innovation for Sustainable Electricity Systems
Innovation is key to achieving a sustainable electricity system. New technologies and organizational changes can bring about more sustainable, climate-friendly electricity structures. Yet the dynamics of innovation are complex, and difficult to shape. This book, written by experts in the field, sets out to explore the dynamics, the drivers and the setting of innovation processes. Case studies on micro cogeneration, carbon capture and storage, consumer feedback, network regulation and emissions trading provide insights into innovation dynamics in the electricity system and are analyzed to derive strategic implications for innovation policies. A special focus is placed on drivers and barriers of change, and their consequences for shaping the innovation process. This book is an indispensable source of information for researchers and decision makers in energy and climate change as well as for lecturers and students interested in the principles and ramifications of electricity innovation dynamics.

Traumziel Nachhaltigkeit
Massentourismus hat zwei Gesichter: Er kann die Umwelt belasten und die soziokulturellen Identitäten beeinflussen. Gleichzeitig ist Tourismus häufig eine der wichtigsten Einnahmequellen. Nachhaltigkeit ist daher nicht nur wünschenswert, sondern notwendig. Wie sie erreicht werden kann, zeigt das vorliegende Buch. Es beantwortet Fragen wie: Was sind die spezifischen Anforderungen an einen nachhaltigen Tourismus? Welches sind die Zielgruppen für nachhaltige Tourismusangebote im Massenmarkt? Welche Strategien und Marketingkonzepte bieten sich an?
Handbuch des Staatsrechts - Neuausgabe
Mit Prof. Dr. Uwe Kischel, LL.M., Universität Greifswald und Prof. Dr. Hanno Kube, LL.M., Universität Heidelberg, verantworten zwei neue Herausgeber gemeinsam mit einem Autorenteam von über 200 Wissenschaftler*innen aus dem In- und Ausland das Neue Handbuch des Staatsrechts. Diese Neuausgabe ist auf insgesamt 12 Bände angelegt, die ab Herbst 2023 in jährlichem Rhythmus erscheinen werden. Das Werk ist zum einen der Bewahrung und tiefgreifenden Reflektion des Staatsrechts in seinem Bestand als Rückgrat des staatlichen Gemeinwesens verpflichtet. Darüber hinaus vermittelt es auch einen Gesamtblick auf die herausragenden Zukunftsthemen des Staatsrechts. Es begleitet und lenkt den Wandel, i...
