USDAfter the perceived failure of global approaches to tackling climate change, enthusiasm for local climate initiatives has blossomed world-wide, suggesting a more experimental approach to climate governance. Innovating Climate Governance: Moving Beyond Experiments looks critically at climate governance experimentation, focusing on how experimental outcomes become embedded in practices, rules and norms. Policy which encourages local action on climate change, rather than global burden-sharing, suggests a radically different approach to tackling climate issues. This book reflects on what climate governance experiments achieve, as well as what happens after and beyond these experiments. A bottom-up, polycentric approach is analyzed, exploring the outcomes of climate experiments and how they can have broader, transformative effects in society. Contributions offer a wide range of approaches and cover more than fifty empirical cases internationally, making this an ideal resource for academics and practitioners involved in studying, developing and evaluating climate governance.
- Invites readers to consider how climate policy experiments can have broader and more lasting effects on society
- Provides a variety of approaches, outcomes, and definitions used in discussing climate governance innovation
- Analyzes a wide range of cases of climate governance experimentation in different sectors and countries, appealing to audiences from multiple disciplines and sectors
- Informs and guides future research and policymaking in the field, focusing on core emerging questions
