In this research article, I emphasize the meaning of procedural rights for just transition to Green Economy. I argue that different justice arguments play a role in the context of Green Economy policies but can be traded-off against one another. Whereas intergenerational and international injustice can be diminished by zero-carbon policies, Green Economy transition processes can exacerbate already existing intrasocietal injustices. This is even more the case if vulnerable societal groups cannot participate and are not adequately represented in repressive political systems. In such cases, installing procedural justice mechanisms and comprehensively considering different justice concerns in Green Economy policies can lead to more sustainable outcomes. My empirical analysis focuses on Ethiopia as a case study placing an emphasis on the hydroelectric Gibe III dam. Empirically, it is based on a content analysis of policy documents and field research comprising expert interviews with governmental representatives, international organizations and civil society.

在这篇研究文章中，我强调了向绿色经济过渡过程中程序权利的含义。我认为，不同的正义论据在绿色经济政策的背景下可以发挥作用，但可以相互取舍。零碳政策可以减少代际和国际间的不公正，而绿色经济转型进程可以加剧已经存在的社会内部不公正。如果脆弱的社会群体无法参与并且在压制性政治制度中没有得到足够的代表，情况就更是如此。在这种情况下，安装程序正义机制并全面考虑绿色经济政策中的不同正义问题，可以带来更可持续的结果。我的经验分析以埃塞俄比亚为例，重点放在水力发电吉贝三世大坝上。从经验上讲，它基于对政策文件和实地研究的内容分析，包括对政府代表，国际组织和民间社会的专家访谈。
