本书分为上下卷，主要由潘家华研究员在气候变化研究领域的论文及研究报告构成。潘家华研究员在气候变化政治经济学领域是领军人物，著述颇丰。全书分为理论篇、方法篇、治理篇和政策篇四部分。理论篇包括气候变化经济学总论、气候变化政治经济学和碳排放与人文发展；方法篇包括温室气体减排经济学分析和低碳经济发展经济学；治理篇包括国际气候制度设计和构建、中国的角色和选择；政策篇分为低碳转型的政策选择、节能减排与低碳发展、适应气候变化三章。气候变化经济学涉及的学科领域包括福利经济学、发展经济学、国际政治经济学、产权经济学等。正是在多学科交叉背景下，气候变化经济学逐步发展起来。本书也提出一些理论、方法、政策和案例，对于发展中国家在国际气候谈判中争取公平权益、获得发展空间，以及发展中国家向低碳经济、生态经济转型，具有很高的学术价值。气候变化经济学是中国社科院的优势学科，也是一个新学科，目前没有成体系的理论和方法。气候变化经济学框架构建已基本完成，内容已经很充分，从基本概念、框架和体系方面奠定了气候变化经济学基础，对推动气候变化经济学发展、社科院优势学科建设和我社学科化出版，以及国内外学科话语体系也具有重要意义。

The book is divided into two volumes, mainly composed of the papers and research reports of Professor Pan Jiahua in the field of climate change research. Professor Pan Jiahua is a leading figure in the political economy of climate change and has published a lot of books. The book is divided into four parts: theory, methodology, governance and policy. The theoretical chapter includes general introduction to the economics of climate change, political economy of climate change, carbon emissions and human development; The methodology includes economic analysis of greenhouse gas emission reduction and economics of low-carbon economic development; The governance chapter includes the design and construction of the international climate regime, China's role and choices; The policy chapter is divided into three chapters: policy options for low-carbon transition, energy conservation, emission reduction and low-carbon development, and adaptation to climate change. The disciplines involved in the economics of climate change include welfare economics, development economics, international political economy, and property rights economics. It is in the interdisciplinary context that the economics of climate change has gradually developed. This book also puts forward some theories, methods, policies and cases, which are of high academic value for developing countries to strive for fair rights and interests in international climate negotiations, gain development space, and transform developing countries to low-carbon economy and ecological economy. Climate change economics is an advantageous discipline of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and it is also a new discipline, and there is currently no systematic theory and method. The construction of the framework of climate change economics has been basically completed, and the content has been sufficient, laying the foundation of climate change economics from the aspects of basic concepts, frameworks and systems, which is also of great significance for promoting the development of climate change economics, the construction of advantageous disciplines of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the publication of our social sciences, as well as the discourse system of disciplines at home and abroad.（AI翻译）
