Abstract

Global climate change is opening up new questions and reinvigorating old lines of inquiry in the study of international energy politics. Many policymakers and stakeholders are pushing for a clean energy transition away from the fossil fuels that have long dominated the world's energy supply. On some issues, there is considerable consensus between political scientists and other analysts, such as the basic categories of the “winners” and “losers” from the clean energy transition. On other issues, however, political science tends to depart significantly from other disciplines. The politics of the desired clean energy transition are highly complicated and filled with obstacles beyond those typically highlighted by either economics or physical sciences. For these reasons, energy politics associated with oil and other fossil fuels are far from over and continue to develop, even as new political dynamics associated with the clean energy transition emerge. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Political Science, Volume 26 is June 2023. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

气候变化时代的国际能源政治

全球气候变化在国际能源政治研究中提出了新的问题，并使旧有的研究思路重新焕发活力。许多政策制定者和利益相关者正在推动清洁能源转型，摆脱长期以来主导世界能源供应的化石燃料。在一些问题上，政治学家和其他分析人士达成了相当大的共识，比如清洁能源转型的“赢家”和“输家”的基本分类。然而，在其他问题上，政治学往往与其他学科大相径庭。理想的清洁能源转型的政治是高度复杂的，充满了经济学或物理科学通常强调的障碍。由于这些原因，与石油和其他化石燃料相关的能源政治远未结束，并将继续发展，即使与清洁能源转型相关的新政治动态出现。预计《政治学年度评论》第26卷的最终在线出版日期为2023年6月。修订后的估计数请参阅http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates。
