"From Norm Taker to Norm Maker? Indian Energy Governance in Global context" talk by Dr. Navroz Dubash at Teen Murti House, Teen Murti Marg > 3pm on 6th March 2012
Time : 3:00 pm
Entry : Free (Seating on First-Come First-Served basis)
Event Details : The Nehru Memorial Museum and Library cordially invites you to The Tuesday Seminar on 'From Norm Taker to Norm Maker? Indian Energy Governance in Global context' by Dr. Navroz Dubash, Centre for Policy Research, New Delhi
Abstract : His talk will examine how India’s domestic energy challenges have been shaped by global forces and how, in turn, India has engaged and is likely to engage in discussions of global energy governance. A central theme is that exploring India’s engagement in global energy governance requires a clear understanding of its domestic energy context and how this has changed over time. The talk elaborates on the three narratives that have guided Indian energy governance domestically: state control; the grafting on of market institutions; and the embryonic linkage between energy security and climate change. In all these phases, Indian energy has been strongly influenced by global trends, but these have been filtered through India’s political economy, creating outcomes that constrain future policy implementation. This path-dependent story also carries implications for India’s engagement with global energy governance. With the rise of a new narrative around energy security, increasingly leavened with invocations of clean energy, India is positioned to reformulate its engagement in global debates. However, the perceived need, strategic clarity and resultant eagerness to engage in the task are all limited.
Speaker : Dr. Navroz’s current work examines climate change as a problem of multi-level governance by focusing on domestic regulatory changes in environmentally-sensitive sectors. He also works on the political economy of energy in India and Asia, international climate change negotiations, the role of civil society in global environmental governance, and water governance. He is currently a member of India’s Expert Committee on Low Carbon Strategies for Inclusive Growth, a Lead Author for the Fifth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and serves on the editorial boards of several international journals.
His recent publications include a co-edited special issue of Climate Policy entitled “Beyond Copenhagen” and a co-edited special issue of the journal Global Policy on Global Energy Governance. He has a long history of engagement with civil society organizations, including as the first international coordinator of the Climate Action Network, from 1990-92.
Navroz holds Ph.D. and M.A. degrees in Energy and Resources from the University of California, Berkeley, and an A.B. in Public and International Affairs from Princeton University.
