Dear all

Another panel proposal that may be of interest for next year’s ISA, being 
organised by Sandra Barragán, James Jackson and myself. Please do get in touch 
if you are interested in participating. The ISA deadline is looming (doesn’t it 
always!) so if you can let us know and send us an abstract by Weds 22nd May 
that would be ideal. Paper proposals should have a title (50 words max), an 
author list (names, emails, affiliations), and an abstract (200 words max). To 
submit a proposal, all authors must have an ISA account (these are free to 
register for).

Thanks

The Disruptive dynamics of Green Energy Transitions

Panel abstract:

It is increasingly evident that various aspects of green energy transitions 
(GETs) are highly disruptive, impacting supply chains, extraction sites, trade 
flows, geopolitical dynamics, and state finances. It is also clear that diverse 
disruptive strategies are necessary to generate such transitions, from novel 
forms of transnational social movement activism to targeted economic through 
green industrial strategy. It is also clear that they raise profound questions 
of social justice. This panel aims to examine the disruptive qualities of GETs 
as well as the current geopolitical contexts in which they are unfolding.

We invite papers that explore these dynamics in any of the following areas:

1.      Disruptions caused by transitioning away from fossil fuels, 
particularly affecting regions reliant on them.
2.      Disruptions linked to the shift towards renewable energy and 
electrification, including challenges with critical minerals and geopolitical 
dynamics.
3.      Disruptions resulting from global crises like COVID-19 and the Ukraine 
crisis impacting green energy transitions.
4.      Disruptions arising from the shift to industrial strategy in pursuit of 
green energy transitions, involving trade conflicts, geopolitical rivalries 
over resources, and related issues.
