In order to obtain the PhD degree, Stine Quorning has submitted her thesis entitled:
Managing Climate Change Like a Central Banker. The Political Economy of Greening the Monetary Technocracy Ìý As the short- and long-term consequences of climate change become increasingly clear, central banks have started to engage with climate change leaving central bankers in an unprecedented situation: working with a policy domain outside their immediate knowledge remits. It is against this background that this dissertation investigates how central bankers have approached the work with climate change and the extent to which central banks have been repurposed. The dissertation draws on insights from International Political Economy and takes a micro-level analytical approach constructed around three factors: practices, expertise, and legibility. The dissertation argues that central bankers have treated climate change as a risk issue. In doing so, central bankers have been able to work with climate change using their existing expertise. Thus, the necessary fundamental changes to the conduct of central banking in the age of anthropogenic climate change remain absent.
