Research Project at the Centre
An Imagined Green Future World Order with Chinese Characteristics: How Different Conceptions of a Sustainable Order Affect Global Climate Cooperation
As China increasingly engages in the international climate field, it brings along ideas such as building an 'ecological civilization', a 'harmonious society', and a 'community with a shared future for mankind'. These framings point to a specific Chinese vision of a green world order, which has the environment at its substantial core and China at its political center. Moreover, these ideas have been sustained by significant advances in green technologies, which have provided China with significant economic power in addition to the symbolic rhetoric of its policy framings. Therefore, such concepts not only conform assumptions and worldviews but also have practical political implications, and technology lies at the heart of China’s future vision for a green world order. Amid this context, this research aims to assess how China’s conception of a green world order affects global cooperation in climate change. Theoretically, it uses the sociotechnical imaginaries framework and then combines it with the literature on global climate cooperation. By bridging these two approaches, the research aims to contribute to the theoretical advances in the field of climate cooperation by bringing technology and the different imaginaries of world order to the discussion. Methodologically, it will use the method of content analysis to analyze official documents, speeches, statements, and interviews.
