  • Promoting Compliance in an Evolving Climate Regime Edited by Jutta Brunnée Meinhard Doelle and Lavanya Rajamani Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-19948-3 - Promoting Compliance in an Evolving Climate Regime Edited by Jutta Brunnée Meinhard Doelle and Lavanya Rajamani Frontmatter More information PROMOTING COMPLIANCE IN AN EVOLVING CLIMATE REGIME As the contours of a post-2012 climate regime begin to emerge, compli- ance issues will require increasing attention. This volume considers the questions that the trends in the climate negotiations raise for the regime’s compliance system. It reviews the main features of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and its Kyoto Protocol, canvasses the lit- erature on compliance theory, and examines the broader experience with compliance mechanisms in other international environmental regimes. Against this backdrop, contributors examine the central elements of the existing compliance system, the practice of the Kyoto compliance pro- cedure to date, and the main compliance challenges encountered by key groups of states such as OECD countries, economies in transition, and developing countries. These assessments anchor examinations of the strengths and weaknesses of the existing compliance tools and of the emerging, decentralized, ‘bottom-up’ approach introduced by the 2009 Copenhagen Accord and pursued by the 2010 Cancun Agreements. jutta brunnée is Professor of Law and Metcalf Chair in Environ- mental Law at the University of Toronto. As co-author of Legitimacy and Legality in International Law: An International Account, she received the American Society of International Law’s 2011 Certificate of Merit for a Preeminent Contribution to Creative Scholarship in International Law. meinhard doelle is an associate professor at Dalhousie University’s Schulich School of Law, where he is also Associate Director of the Marine and Environmental Law Institute.

  • CLIMATE CHANGE LAW and POLICY Visiting Professor Vyoma
    CLIMATE CHANGE LAW AND POLICY THE ECONOMICS, ETHICS AND POLITICS OF CLIMATE CHANGE Visiting Professor Vyoma Jha National Law University, Delhi Fall 2014 Why climate change? Climate change has emerged as a serious problem that challenges both our informal systems for regulating behavior (e.g., ethics) and our formal systems of governance (e.g., law). The aim of this seminar course will be to provide students a comprehensive introduction to climate change law and policy. We will begin by using economics as the primary analytical framework, but ground it in a strong connection to ethical and current political reality. For our legal analysis we will work our way from the global to the local, starting by tracing developments in international climate change law and policy, moving to exploring the key Indian governance approaches to climate change, especially the difficult legal and policy decisions that India will face with respect to climate change. Why not only the Law? Why Economics? Ethics? Politics? Climate change, like a lot of other problems in the modern world, is shaped by challenges that are increasingly non-linear, unpredictable, messy and context-dependent. The effects of climate change are decidedly non-linear and difficult to forecast. While, there are no guaranteed responses and those proposed so far are complex, context-dependent, and in most cases very disputed. The law of climate change involves a wide gamut of issues that go well beyond the confines a legal framework. In order to be prepared for and resilient to the changes in the legal issues surrounding climate change, a lawyer needs to be well versed in the complex and multi-level governance system applying to climate change.
