Rethinking Authority In Global Climate Governance: How Transnational Climate Initiatives Relate To The International Climate Regime (Routledge Research In Global Environmental Governance)

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. On the contrary, many transnational climate initiatives use the international climate regime as a point of reference and have adopted various rules and procedures from international agreements.
