Government political ideology and green innovation : evidence from OECD countries
Tawiah, Vincent ; Zakari, Abdulrasheed
In this paper, we examine the relationship between government political ideology and green innovation. We employ data on 20 democratic countries with multi-party systems between 2010 and 2018. Green ...innovation is measured by the total patents in environment-related technologies. We fnd a negative relationship between leftleaning government and green innovation, suggesting that leftist governments are associated with low green innovations. This fnding is consistent with the political assumption that leftist governments resist technological advancement because it may cause unemployment, whereas rightist promotes technological advancement to beneft the capitalist. We also fnd that the efect of political ideology remains the same during electoral years, implying that elections do not present any pressure on parties to change their course towards green innovation. Our result implies that partisan politics matters in fnding solutions to unending environmental challenges. The results are robust to alternative measurements of variables and econometric identifcation strategies.
