China's Energy Security in the Twenty-First Century

The Role of Global Governance and Climate Change

By: Kaho Yu

Kaho Yu’s China’s Energy Security in the Twenty-First Century: The Role of Global Governance and Climate Change explores the evolution of China’s energy security from its bilateral going-out strategy to its more multilateral Belt and Road Initiative. By analysing the topic from a multidisciplinary perspective, this book examines China’s evolving role in global energy governance through four empirical case studies: China’s energy cooperation with Russia and Central Asia, Africa, the European Union, and the Asia Infrastructure Investment Bank. “Kaho Yu has written a splendid overview of China’s efforts to engage in bilateral cooperation to ensure greater energy cooperation between countries in central Asia, Africa, and Europe and improve global supply chains. This book could not come at a more opportune moment, as the world seems to be undecided on the efficacy of cooperative multilateralism to enhance climate and energy goals.” —Henry Lee, Director of the Environment and Natural Resources Program, Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, Harvard Kennedy School “Despite profound changes in technology and the economy since the Industrial Revolution, energy remains central to both economic prosperity and international security. Economic development is plain energy-intensive. The world’s largest, richest country is still developing. The planet is embroiled in geopolitical rivalry. The geographical distribution of critical minerals is skewed. All these mean energy security will be a profoundly important challenge in the century ahead. Yu’s book provides exactly the substantive, thoughtful research that we will need to begin to unpack these issues.” —Danny Quah, Li Ka Shing Professor in Economics, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore

THE O'S LAB

By: Wing Ki To

The O’s Lab is a story that seeks to encourage people to live sustainably, by making the best use of existing and even old/used resources around us, including fabric materials, gadgets, bicycles and toys. The story focuses on Jackie, a creative girl who does not like the old-fashioned education system, and how she found her passion and talent in making things (the arts of craftsmanship). She ends up finding a partner and middle-aged women who are discriminated in the workplace or are retired but are still willing to remain active through meaningful work (the aging population trends and opportunities for the silver haired workforce), and how they launched an environmental social enterprise to help encourage citizens to enjoy and appreciate sustainable living. The comic introduces the concepts such as bricolage (making do with what is at hand) as one among many principles in living sustainably, collaboration with other resource owners, voluntary simplicity concept, different legal vehicles for social enterprise registration (e.g., as non-profit entity, as Benefit Corporation, as private limited company), the logics of environmental social enterprise (e.g., a fusion of environmental logic, social welfare logic, and commercial logics), the concept of empowerment, profit lock and asset lock concepts in social enterprises, open innovation concept, community building, among others. We include reflection pages that summarize key points learned in different stages of the story - from the lens of the narrator.
