Projektinformationen
The GreeTS research group analyzes the conditions, forms and implications of policy changes in the land-use and energy fields in Costa Rica and Vietnam. The project starts from the puzzling observation that these two countries from the global South with different political systems in terms of their state-society relations and historical records of national green politics have both produced ambitious formal commitments towards substantial green transformations across the economic, ecological and social dimensions. Thus GreeTS (1) analyzes the role of different change agents in this process, (2) asks under which conditions formal commitment is actually turned into substantial action and (3) traces trade-offs and barriers at various scales towards effective policy implementation. Special attention is being paid to the role of national elites, state bureaucracies and state-society relations. On the basis of these insights, the research group will also formulate policy relevant conclusions and recommendations.
