Descrizione
This proposed research comes to light at such a time when both scholars and policymakers have to face an urgent challenge that the conventional free trade paradigm is being shaken in a polarized world and by the green transition towards climate neutrality, which has been vividly reflected in the EU-China dynamics. How to achieve a paradigm change of green trade is the defining topic of the EU-China relation at our time in a polarized world. The research sheds new light on the potential of a bilateral soft-law paradigm to address environmental and climate concerns within the context of EU-China trade greening the trade. This project meticulously examines the feasibility, design, and applicability of such a paradigm change in enhancing environmental sustainability in greening trade between the EU and China, focusing particularly on its integration with three new EU flagship trade-related environmental instruments the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), Deforestation Regulation, and the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulations (PPWR). The study aims to offer a nuanced understanding of how this bilateral soft-law paradigm could serve as a strategic legal tool and potentially a game changer to balance the intricate trade-environment dynamics between the EU and China, while concurrently addressing the triple planetary crisis of climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss. It serves as the very first study that integrates hard law measures and soft law paradigm in EU-China bilateral narratives, connecting environmental and trade regimes. The expected impact of the project extends far beyond academia, offering actionable strategies that can be adopted by EU-China policymakers to balance trade and environmental imperatives between the two economic powerhouses. It will even further contribute to a global beacon in the ever-changing game of greening trade coopetition a real paradigm change to address the triple planetary crisis.
