  • You Looking at Me, Looking at You: BREXIT Britain and the World
    You looking at me, looking at you: BREXIT Britain and the World Tuesday 16 May, 2017 St Antony’s College, University of Oxford You looking at me, looking at you BREXIT Britain and the World Preamble Following the invocation of Article 50 in March, and in the run-up to the General Election in June, the ongoing debate on Brexit has begun to intensify. Both sides to the discussions are poised to delineate their opening negotiating positions regarding Britain’s departure from the EU and the reconfiguration of Britain’s economic and political relationship with Europe. The Political Economy of Financial Markets (PEFM) Programme at St Antony’s College is collaborating with the Global Strategy Forum (GSF) in the organization of two high-level Conferences, on May 16 in Oxford and on 14 June in London, to consider the options and implications of Brexit, from the perspectives of the United Kingdom, the rest of Europe and the rest of the world. The two Conferences will look specifically at four perspectives on Brexit: i) how the UK expects its relationship with Europe to change, ii) how the UK hopes to engage with the rest of the (non-European) world, iii) how the world might respond to this (unforeseen) European divorce, and iv) how the Europeans themselves see Brexit, both in terms of the new relationship which will need to be forged with the UK, and in terms of the implications for the EU itself. The first (full) day Conference (open to all subject to registration) will be hosted by St. Antony’s College at the Nissan Lecture Theatre on 16 May, 2017 and will cover the first three (of the four) perspectives outlined above.

Emissions Trading In The United States: Using RGGI As A Model For Addressing Disproportionate Impacts Of Climate Change Joshua Bleisch* INTRODUCTION The year 2017 witnessed one of the worst national disaster years on record both in the United States and across the world. Devastating hurricanes struck Texas, Florida, and Puerto Rico,1 and wildfires burned 1.2 million acres in California.2 Combined with widespread flooding in Southeast Asia and other incidents, it is estimated that the cost of these disasters is around $330 billion globally.3 But more than just a year of particularly unforgiving natural disasters, 2017 is a prime example of how poorer communities are more severely affected by natural disasters and other effects of a changing climate.
