NEW PUBLICATION - The Great Dane @mathiaslarsen.bsky.social Larsen and I review the differing concepts of state-led approaches to the green transition over the past two decades. We attempt to provide some conceptual coherence to the debate. The article is Open Access.

🚨New article🚨 The consensus is that contestation pushed central banks to talk 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 about inequality & climate. Our theory: At first, CBs seek to ward off politicization by talking 𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 about controversial topics. We tested this 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐜 𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐡𝐲𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐬.🧵 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

What does de-risked decarbonization mean for state capacity across sectors? I am THRILLED that this article is now out in @ripejournal.bsky.social! 🔓 Current climate finance regimes lock in lopsided transitions - states need resources for unbankable transitions. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Mark Blyth and I sang a duet. It’s about how a country’s growth model shapes its state capacity to decarbonize - both the advantages and disadvantages. Enjoy! @ripejournal.bsky.social www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

My co-author @james7jackson.bsky.social with a short blog for @cepi-cips.bsky.social on the looming climate-related risks and financial instability facing the insurance sector. Our recent work identifies 3 (or 4?) causes of "practical ignorance" when pricing in CRFR www.cips-cepi.ca/2025/04/22/h...

New article! This review surveys the state of knowledge regarding central bank activity on climate change, and argues that there is considerable indeterminacy in the trajectory of this activity & its potential to contribute to effective climate action. doi.org/10.1080/0964...
Authors: Jacqueline Best, Matthew Paterson, Ilias Alami, Daniel Bailey, Sarah Bracking, Jeremy Green, Eric Helleiner, James Jackson, Paul Langley, Sylvain Maechler, John Morris, Stine Quorning, Adrienne Roberts, Jens van’t Klooster, Robert Watt and Stanley Wilshire.
Abstract: In this article, we survey the literature on central bank action on climate change, focusing particularly on how the combined crises of COVID-19, inflation, and Ukraine have affected this action. We argue that the current situation is a critical juncture in which recent crises have created a highly indeterminate situation regarding what central banks might do regarding climate change. To date, some central banks have used these crises as opportunities for expanding their role while others have succumbed to pressure to withdraw from climate action. We explore three dynamics that generate this openness to various potential trajectories for climate action...

And another timely article in NPE from Ban & @jhasselbalch.bsky.social questions whether we need to transcend the Green State concept (too siloed?) and focus instead on a ‘green economic planning’ agenda! www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
