OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
'European Climate Leadership and COP21: Assessing EU Relations With China And India'
The contours of global climate politics are shifting. Negotiations in the run-up to December’s Paris climate conference are characterized by an unusual alignment of players. The US and China embraced climate action through bilateral agreement. The EU is pushing for an ambitious Paris agreement. India has recently come forward with its 2030 pledge.
At this talk Dr. Diarmuid Torney will present the findings of his new book, European Climate Leadership in Question: Policies toward China and India (MIT Press, 2015). The first systematic assessment of Europe’s claim to climate leadership, the book analyzes EU engagement with China and India on climate change.
Diarmuid Torney is a recent D.Phil. graduate from the Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Oxford, and his book is a revised version of his thesis.
