Rethinking Authority in Global Climate Governance (eBook, ePUB)

How transnational climate initiatives relate to the international climate regime

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Reconfiguration of Authority in Global Climate Governance puts forward the argument that while transnational city networks, private certification schemes, and private self-regulation can surely contribute to solving the problem of climate change, the development of such initiatives by different types of sub- and non-state actors does not imply a weakening of the intergovernmental level.
