Political discourse as institutional communication

Estado emprendedor y plan nacional de desarrollo, 2022-2026

“…Proceso asimilable al de Alemania, donde las tecnologías renovables, la protección ambiental y la industria basada en un capital humano altamente calificado, junto a la cogestión y concertación entre propietarios y fuerza laboral, se han traducido en progreso (Aktouf, 2009). Un caso similar se da en China, con una suerte de keynesianismo verde impulsado por el Estado y que se concentra en la creación de bienes de alto valor agregado dirigidos a la sostenibilidad: hoy, es el líder mundial en la exportación de tecnologías solares y eólicas, capacidad que es resultado de una inversión y planeación estatal en este tipo de tendencias (Jacobs, 2012).…”

“…Por otro lado, ambos sectores deben trabajar para la obtención de logros sociales; esto como primera obligación (Mazzucato, 2021). Un discurso similar se establece en torno a las economías sostenibles como parte de un esfuerzo conjunto que ha sido bautizado como green keynesianism, retomando la función del Estado como financiador de iniciativas públicas que activen la economía (Jacobs, 2012).…”

The Global Quest for Green Growth: An Economic Policy Perspective

“…The 1987 Brundtland Our Common Future report is seen as a milestone for green growth with its definition ("Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs" [51] (p. 41)) of 'sustainable development' (Jacobs 2012), since it laid out the basis of global ecological policy thinking over the next few years, such as at the Earth Summit and the Rio Declaration in 1992, which explicitly called for economic growth to address environmental problems. The term 'green growth' only gained popularity in the wake of the global financial crisis of 2008 as an idea for short-term stimulus that incorporated environmental objectives (e.g., [52]), and was adopted as a policy objective by international organizations in subsequent years [53]. Today, it underpins the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (goal 8), and most governments and international organizations have adopted the green growth narrative as part of long-term development policies (e.g., [54][55][56][57]) and post-covid recovery plans (e.g., [58]).…”

“…The OECD [55] (p.4), for example, describes it as "fostering economic growth and development, while ensuring that natural assets continue to provide the resources and environmental services on which our well-being relies", while the World Bank [56] and UNEP [57] each have different green objectives in their definition, such as simply 'minimizing environmental impacts' or, more ambitiously, 'reducing ecological scarcities' [59]. Regarding the 'growth' part, Jacobs [53] wrote that green GDP growth is understood as either: (1) higher growth than in a scenario without strong environmental or climate policies, both in the short and long run (dubbed the 'strong' version of green growth); or (2) lower though still positive growth in the short run and higher growth in the long run, as high future costs of climate damages are avoided by incurring manageable costs (the 'standard' version, as found in the Stern review [60]). Sometimes adding to the confusion is a lack of clarity about the baseline against which growth is compared.…”

Towards a Green Economy in China? Examining the Impact of the Internet of Things and Environmental Regulation on Green Growth

“…Coordination of the three frameworks that govern the economy, society, and environment will effectively offer a road for sustainable growth as China enters a phase of excellent growth. This prompts a shift away from rapid economic growth towards the preservation of the environment, closing the wealth gap, and ensuring that the current social strata benefit equally from economic growth while also taking into account the wants of future generations [4]. The future of China's economy and significant changes in the global economic environment will be determined by this transition, which incorporates the integrated ideals of efficiency and equality.…”
