Luca Taschini's Inaugural Lecture - Make it work: The Evolution of Carbon Pricing Policies

Since their inception in the 1980s, carbon pricing policies, notably carbon markets, have undergone a significant transformation. Initially characterised by simple design features, these policies aimed to regulate emissions from a limited set of sources, drawing on the environmental economics of that era, which focused primarily on local pollutants. However, the landscape of carbon pricing has since become vastly more complex. This complexity reflects an evolution in policy structures, influenced by varying economic cycles and political climates. Today's carbon pricing mechanisms are intricate, incorporating advanced objectives and strategies to address the global scale and multifaceted nature of carbon emissions and climate change.
