[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] Professor Han Hee-jin of Pukyong National University published the book "International Politics of Climate Change" on the 13th.

The book is an academic work analyzing the worsening issue of climate change from the perspective of international politics. It is the 17th installment in the "Questions of Our Time" series, planned with the support of the Busan National University Development Project.

The author approached climate change not merely as an external stress from nature or changes in meteorological conditions imposed on the international community, but as a global issue and social science problem that requires solutions through interactions and political processes among various actors constituting the international society.

International Politics of Climate Change.

The book consists of an introduction and conclusion, and nine chapters: ▲ Definition of climate change and its emergence as a global issue ▲ Development of international regimes on climate change ▲ Climate change responses of the EU and the United States ▲ Climate change responses of China and Korea ▲ International politics of cooperation and conflict surrounding climate change ▲ Political economy of climate change viewed through trade and global corporations ▲ Climate change and global civil society.

In the preface, Professor Han Hee-jin stated, “I hope this book will broaden the foundation of our society’s awareness of climate change and become a wave that triggers a greater transformation at multiple levels such as governments, corporations, and cities, beyond individual behavioral changes.”
