The ecological transition raises societal issues at the crossroads of purely economic and technical considerations as well as ethical and political considerations.
Carbon taxation, technological support policies and financial instruments interact in a systemic way and raise issues about the macroeconomic effects of transition policies. Other dimensions (demographics, financial instability) must also be considered to bring attention to potential overlooked opportunities and challenges ahead.
The question of a “just transition” has become increasingly pressing. Empirical and theoretical analyses are needed to shed further light on these issues and to contribute to the conversation on the rationale and legitimacy of the ecological transition, in addition to providing information to decision makers and citizens.
