“…Specifically, European Union (EU)-led efforts to re-conceive of aeromobilities as a risk to global climate in need of curbs under its Emissions Trading System have met with strong opposition from those affected by Europe's de facto taxation scheme (Anger-Kraavi and Ko¨hler, 2013). Asian countries, along with Russia and South American counterparts, have been particularly vocal dissenters in this area, with China and India blatantly flouting EU environmental laws for aviation, while threatening to impose counter charges on European carriers (Ibitz, 2015;Lin, 2013). In international migration, there are similar challenges to global schemes emanating out of the West.…”

Moving in relations to AsiaReflecting the region's increasing prominence, Asia is becoming an important focal point where a myriad of 'new' mobilities can be unearthed and analysed. From the revival of the ancient Silk Road for freight (Calder, 2012), to the growing complexity of Asian migrations within and beyond the region (Amrith, 2011;Fielding, 2016; Nyı´ri and Tan, 2016), Asia has captured the imagination of academics, commentators and policymakers alike as a milieu where the rapid circulation of people, goods and ideas has gained considerable momentum. Yet, despite these transformations, the 'new' mobilities turn (Cresswell, 2006;Sheller and Urry, 2006) has been less than responsive to the promise of this contextual shift. Having first found currency in Western Europe (especially Britain and Scandinavia) and North America, much of this work remains rooted in the specific interests, agendas and critiques tethered to the politics and practices of these societies (Lin, 2016). Consequently, this research tends to coalesce around particular issues, like risk, security, infrastructural disruptions, sustainability and community interactions in Western multicultural contexts. This mismatch between scholarly interest and the quickened events taking place in Asia calls for a renewed approach that would take the latter more seriously as a field of research. Indeed, while ubiquitously experienced, mobilities do not assume universal forms, but take on new significances when they meet the road 'elsewhere' (Cresswell, 2014).Foregrounding Asia as an empirical focus is not to aver that there is something essentialist or phenomenologically bounded about this region. Neither is it to extend mobilities research by simply adding another collection of narratives to its repertoire. Rather, by turning to a neglected context, emplacing mobilities in Asia augurs an epistemological re-orientation that can expose mobilities research to novel sets of questions, dispositions and connections (Steele and Lin, 2014). An enabler of these alternative insights is the heterogeneity of Asia, which opens up new exchanges and traffics taking place both in and beyond Asian spaces. Further nuancing these moves, Asia is a region that has undergone particular histories and developmental experiences on

The Effect of Carbon Tax in Aviation Industry on the Multilateral Simulation Game

2017

Abstract:With the end of the grace period (2016) of the aviation carbon tax (ACT) proposed by the EU, the EU is likely to restart the ACT. Hence, it becomes increasingly urgent to propose a feasible and effective scheme to restrict emissions in the aviation industry. We develop a two-stage game model to analyze three possible strategies (non-resistance, refusal of payment and ACT retaliation) in nine scenarios for three groups (the EU, developing countries and non-EU developed countries). The theoretical analyses and numerical simulations reveal that the EU will continue to impose the ACT. Simultaneously, imposing retaliatory ACT constitutes an ideal choice for non-EU developed countries. At present, refusing to pay the ACT is a practical strategy for developing countries; however, after the transitional phase, this group will tend to impose the ACT as developed countries by paying attention to increasing climate change. With optimal strategies for the above three groups, the ACT can be imposed effectively and efficiently by multilateral agreements within the framework of the market-based measure (MBM) scheme. This paper develops a game framework to simulate the ACT effect and to solve emission problems in the aviation industry by a multilateral perspective to achieve sustainability, which is of practical significance for nations and economies.

Stock Market Reactions to Regulatory Events on Emission Trading: Evidence From the European Airline Industry

The inclusion of international aviation emissions into the European Union Emission Trading Scheme starting from 2012 is expected to bring additional costs to flights having either origins or destinations at a European Union airport. In turn, this should bring new costs to airlines. The aim of this paper is to analyze how financial markets reacted to the official announcements on this regulatory change. Our findings, using an event-study methodology and employing a sample of 20 European airlines’ stocks, reveal that the stock markets tend not to take these regulatory changes into account in the valuation of the European airlines’ stocks. We also document that the magnitude of the reaction of low-cost airlines is not statistically significant than that of full-service network airlines’ reaction.
