SUMMARY:Chinese Global Environmentalism &#8211\; Booktalk with Prof. Alex Wang
DESCRIPTION:The environment was once one of China's greatest weaknesses. It is now becoming a pillar of China’s global power.\\n\\n\\n\\nJoin us for a book talk with Alex Wang\, Professor at UCLA School of Law\, as he visits Leiden University to discuss his new book\,&nbsp\;Chinese Global Environmentalism.\\n\\n\\n\\nAlex Wang will explore China’s significant global embrace of green development and how it is shaping environmental governance and global norms worldwide. Drawing on examples from investment\, diplomacy\, and development cooperation\, he will examine how China promotes a distinct form of environmentalism globally. While this approach promises to advance important environmental and governance norms\, it also reshapes others in ways that continue to raise critical questions and geopolitical tensions.\\n\\n\\n\\nThe talk will reflect on both the opportunities and challenges of China’s environmental leadership. Following the presentation\, lecturer Shiming Yang and Professor Rogier Creemers will join for reflections based on their research\, followed by a Q&amp\;A session.\\n\\n\\n\\nThis event is co-organised by The Promise Institute for Human Rights at UCLA (Europe) and hosted by the Institute of Area Studies at Leiden University. It is a unique opportunity to hear from one of the leading voices in environmental law and global governance!
