special issue track: comparing climate policy implementation towards carbon neutrality goals
the international conference on comparative public policy
in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the
journal of comparative policy analysis: research and practice
april 19-21, 2024, tsinghua university, beijing, china

special issue theme:
as part of the international conference on comparative public policy, to be hosted at tsinghua university, beijing, china, on april 19-21, 2024, the journal of comparative policy analysis invites proposals dedicated to the critical examination of climate policy implementation in the pursuit of national carbon neutrality goals. while the global commitment to achieving net zero emissions is commendable, without substantial and concrete climate policy implementation, the global mean temperature is poised to exceed the critical threshold of 2.5 degrees celsius. it is therefore important to scrutinize the tangible policy actions taken by governments and the extent to which declared policies are effectively enforced. this special issue thus aims to unravel the intricacies of the implementation process of carbon neutrality policies across diverse contexts and assess the practical outcomes of these policies.
we welcome submissions that engage in rigorous comparative analysis, offering valuable insights into the challenges and successes of climate policy implementation. authors are encouraged to explore the following key areas:
conduct comparative analysis of pivotal climate policy implementation processes in different economic, political, and institutional contexts.
identify existing implementation gaps in the execution of carbon neutrality policies and delve into the factors that explain these disparities.
examine the role of political dynamics in shaping climate policy implementation within diverse political systems.
investigate novel collaborations and institutional frameworks that facilitate the practical implementation of climate policies.
assess the influence of local cultures, norms, and psychological factors on the shaping and execution of climate policies.
explore the role of policy designs and complementary measures in shaping the implementation landscape of climate policies.
investigate the synergies and interplay between mitigation and adaptation policies, as well as other climate-related measures.
