An in-depth analysis of the evolution of the policy mix for the sustainable energy transition in China from 1981 to 2020 (2020, background): “Despite these improvements, the CO2 ETS pilots have also experienced many problems.”
The co-evolution of policy mixes and socio-technical systems: Towards a conceptual framework of policy mix feedback in sustainability transitions (2019, background): “Building on these ideas, we suggest that the timing (Patashnik and Zelizer, 2009) and sequencing (Meckling et al., 2017) of policies should be relative to the phase of the transition.”
The threat to climate change mitigation posed by the abundance of fossil fuels (2018, background): “However, regulating carbon emissions through direct pricing is often politically challenging (Meckling et al., 2017).”
Challenges in the acceleration of sustainability transitions (2020, background): “One policy strategy to deal with resistance is to accomplish wide societal support for long-term transition targets and to form broad constituencies of actors who are in favor of the transition, e.g. as they benefit from jobs in clean-tech industries (Meckling et al 2017).”
