From Paris to Glasgow. In Search of Policies for Climate Negotiations and their Implementation

This volume provides a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of climate governance, carefully examining global negotiating frameworks, highlighting both the shortcomings of current approaches and the opportunities for more effective implementation. Through its innovative infrastructure-environment integration framework, it offers practical pathways towards more coherent and sustainable climate governance.Climate change negotiations are a complex and thorny issue that has been going on for more than two decades. This book explores the process of implementing the outcome of the negotiations – an important step in the Paris Agreement and beyond – through the lens of the basic concept of what is known as integrated intergovernmental decision-making.The main themes of this study include the politics of the global climate negotiations from Paris to COP26, the underlying rules and regulations of the Paris decisions and beyond, and the politics of the implementation/decisions process. It is a valuable reference for climate negotiators, as well as for researchers and students in international relations, climate change, and environmental studies.
