This book offers unique insight into the economics of sustainable development and the European Green Deal. It provides a robust assessment of the sustainability of European economies and offers practical policy suggestions to aid the transition to green and digital economies. By comparing the approaches taken across Europe, best practices and effective policies are identified for the promotion of energy efficiency, industrial innovation, and inclusive growth. Economic theory and policy implementation are combined to address disparities across Europe and create equal opportunities for clean energy, decent work, and technological development.
This book sets out a framework for the green transition and for global economic transformation. It will be relevant to students, researchers, and policymakers interested in sustainable economic development, the European political economy, and green economic policy.
