In February 2019, Representative Alexandria Ocasio‐Cortez and Senator Ed Markey introduced into the US Congress a non‐binding resolution for a Green New Deal, with the aim to catalyze policies and programs to rapidly decarbonize the US economy while achieving wider progressive economic, social and environmental goals. This motion sparked widespread interest, in and beyond the US, in the potential for more ambitious and solidaristic climate policy under the banner of a Green New Deal (GND). This Overview, after introducing the history of the GND concept and exploring its dimensions in theory, provides a snapshot of GNDs proposed (or adopted/enacted) by politicians, candidates for political office, political parties and governments around the world in the period 2019–2022. Drawing on theories of comparative politics and comparative political economy, the Overview illuminates key patterns in the prevalence and content of this set of GND proposals, as well as their ideological underpinnings and implicit “theories of change.” Specifically, it ventures that: GND policies are more commonly proposed in high‐income, industrialized democracies; variation in GNDs' prevalence and content are associated with varieties of capitalism and electoral institutions; GND policies are more commonly proposed by left‐of‐center parties and candidates; and GNDs are being proposed at all levels of government, but their content is shaped by constraints on government powers. On the basis of this analysis, the concluding section proposes a detailed research agenda on GNDs, with an emphasis on comparative research.This article is categorized under:

The Carbon Economy and Climate Mitigation > Benefits of Mitigation

Policy and Governance > National Climate Change Policy

Policy and Governance > Multilevel and Transnational Climate Change Governance

比较视角下的绿色新政

2019 年 2 月，众议员亚历山大·奥卡西奥·科尔特斯 (Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez) 和参议员埃德·马基 (Ed Markey) 向美国国会提出了一项关于绿色新政的不具约束力的决议，旨在推动政策和计划，迅速实现美国经济脱碳，同时实现更广泛的经济、社会进步。和环境目标。这项动议引发了美国国内外的广泛兴趣，人们对在绿色新政（GND）旗帜下制定更雄心勃勃、更团结的气候政策的潜力产生了广泛的兴趣。本概述在介绍了 GND 概念的历史并在理论上探讨了其维度之后，提供了 2019 年期间世界各地的政治家、政治职务候选人、政党和政府提出（或采用/颁布）的 GND 的快照： 2022 年。概述借鉴比较政治学和比较政治经济学的理论，阐明了这套 GND 提案的流行和内容的关键模式，以及它们的意识形态基础和隐含的“变革理论”。具体来说，它认为： GND 政策在高收入工业化民主国家中更常见； GND 的流行程度和内容的变化与资本主义和选举机构的多样性有关； GND 政策更常由中左翼政党和候选人提出；各级政府都在提出 GND，但其内容受到政府权力的限制。在此分析的基础上，结论部分提出了 GND 的详细研究议程，重点是比较研究。本文分为以下几类：

碳经济和减缓气候变化 > 减缓的好处

政策与治理 > 国家气候变化政策

政策与治理 > 多层次跨国气候变化治理
