Podcasts about energy governance

In this episode of the podcast Callum Mason discusses two major scoops focusing firstly on the huge swathe of schools that are repeatedly being rejected for funding to improve dilapidated buildings and secondly around data that shows no schools used the energy switch service in the first three months of the year. Then Grainne Hallahan discusses pieces on governance on Tes this week and why schools need to think hard about the make-up of their governing body to ensure they have the right expertise on hand when required.

Angella MacEwen, John Foster, and Francisco Wulff are all economists; Alex Belyakov is a Ukrainian journalist who covered the Chernobyl disaster. There was a debate about whether Canada's fossil fuels may help Europe transition away from Russian sources or whether nuclear power is a better solution. There was another debate about whether the democratic states should continue trading with regimes that do not try to protect human rights and democracy, or whether "we are all sinners," and therefore should not discriminate against countries that behave atrociously.

Simone Abram is a professor of anthropology at Durham University where she is also a Director of the Durham Energy Institute, and is the current Chair of the Association of Social Anthropologists in the UK. She holds a BSc/MEng in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, an MSt and DPhil in Social and Cultural Anthropology. Simone's research projects span across multiple fields and a wide range of interests with a strong focus on energy. Simone is currently a researcher at the National Centre for Energy Systems Integration (CESI), a £5m 5-year, 5-university research project, in which she brings anthropological methods and perspectives to the process and conceptualisation of energy modelling, and at the Include research centre for socially inclusive energy transitions, based in Oslo Norway. Additionally, Simone has recently helped to found a new European network on energy anthropology, is a member of the EASA Future Anthropology Network and a series editor of the Berghahn Public and Applied Anthropology series with Prof Sarah Pink.Corina and Maria talk to Simone about the anthropology of energy, ethics in the field of energy governance and sustainability dilemmas for individuals and communities alike. What questions brought Simone, an engineering graduate, to anthropology? Simone reflects on her own ethnography learning process, the challenge of entering a new knowledge area and the fresh perspectives brought by engaging with other disciplines. We explore other questions such as: can energy possibly have an international ethical foundation and how to reconcile different epistemological notions in order to arrive at a common understanding? What about the balance between social inequality and sustainability measures? Simone shares her thoughts and experiences as a researcher, academic and an individual actively engaged in community building practices. Mentioned in Podcast:Durham Energy Institute, https://www.dur.ac.uk/dei/Arctic encounters: Contemporary Travel/Writing in the European High North, http://heranet.info/projects/hera-2012-cultural-encounters/arctic-encounters-contemporary-travelwriting-in-the-european-high-north/Just Transition: Pathways to Socially Inclusive Decarbonisation, https://www.researchgate.net/publication/344475984_Just_Transition_Pathways_to_Socially_Inclusive_DecarbonisationWendy Parker on climate modelling, https://durham.academia.edu/WendyParkerTimothy Morton, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_Morton Social media:Twitter: @MScEnSocLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simone-abram/?originalSubdomain=uk

How can we explain the geographical variation of populism in Europe? In the North, right-wing populism dominates, while for many years left-wing populism has been the common in the South. Outside Europe, for example in Latin America, governments frequently shift between left and right populist presidents. In a talk at the Hertie School, Philip Manow discussed populist protest in various political economies by looking at how vulnerable they are to the two most powerful features of globalisation: the movement of goods and capital across borders and migration. This event was part of the Examining populism series, which invites speakers of different disciplinary backgrounds for discussions on the causes, effects and implications of the populist rise. It is co-chaired by Hanna Schwander, Professor of Public Policy, and Christian Flachsland, Assistant Professor of Climate and Energy Governance at the Hertie School of Governance.

The upcoming 2019 European parliament election is increasingly portrayed as a fundamental turning point in the process of European integration. Following electoral gains in previous European and national elections in recent years, anti-EU populist parties are expected to increase their support even further, challenging the European project at its core. How can we explain the support of these parties and what are the implications for the future of Europe? In this talk, Daphne Halikiopoulou addresses these questions by focusing on multiple dimensions of populism. She argues that since the EP elections are considered “second order elections,” they will be used to cast protest votes, thus exaggerating the performance of niche parties. However, she argues that the implications of these elections for the European project are still significant, because of the ability of anti-EU populist parties to permeate mainstream ground and delegitimize the idea of a united Europe. Niklas Anzinger from Dalia Research joins Daphne for a discussion and offers his insights from a European polling perspective. This event is part of the Hertie School of Governance "Examining Populism" series, which invites speakers of different disciplinary backgrounds for discussions on the causes, effects and implications of the populist rise. It is co-chaired by Hanna Schwander, Professor of Public Policy, and Christian Flachsland, Assistant Professor of Climate and Energy Governance at the Hertie School of Governance.

Host Kristin Hayes talks with Dr. Christian Flachsland, head of the Governance Working Group at Germany's Mercator Research Institute on Global Commons and Climate Change, and an assistant professor for Climate and Energy Governance at the Hertie School of Governance. They discuss the ongoing carbon pricing debate in Germany, the EU Emissions Trading System (EUETS), and ways to make these policies more efficient while still achieving climate goals.
