ETUI Monthly Forum
Beyond Austerity: Return of the Green Economy?
Brussels, 3rd July 2013

Speaker: Matthias Lievens, Researcher at the Catholic University of Leuven (KUL) and co-author of the book 'The Myth of the Green Economy'

Comments: Benjamin Denis, ETUC Adviser

Moderator: Philippe Pochet, General Director ETUI

Briefing
In response to the financial and economic crisis of 2008-9, a global ‘Green New Deal’ was hailed as the best road to recovery with the United Nations as well as the European Union lending strong political support to investing in the green economy. But as Europe’s economic crisis turned into a sovereign debt crisis and harsh austerity and ‘structural reform’ measures became the new EU mantra, policies on climate change and greening the economy were quickly put on the back burner.
