They have shown that various new carbon governance arrangements have emerged, which operate simultaneously at different governmental levels. However, despite the numerous descriptions and mapping exercises of these governance arrangements, we have little systematic knowledge on their workings within national jurisdictions, let alone about their impact on public-administrative systems in developing countries. Therefore, this article opens the black box of the nation-state and explores how and to what extent two different arrangements, that is, Transnational City Networks and Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation, generate changes in the distribution of public authority in nation-states and their administrations. Building upon conceptual assumptions that the former is likely to lead to more decentralized, and the latter to more centralized policy-making, we provide insights from case studies in Indonesia, South Africa, Brazil, and India. In a nutshell, our analysis underscores that Transnational City Networks strengthen climate-related actions taken by cities without ultimately decentralizing climate policy-making. On the other hand, Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation tends to reinforce the competencies of central governments, but apparently does not generate a recentralization of the forestry sector at large.}, language = {en} } @article{Fuhr2021, author = {Fuhr, Harald}, title = {The rise of the Global South and the rise in carbon emissions}, series = {Third world quarterly}, volume = {42}, journal = {Third world quarterly}, number = {11}, publisher = {Routledge, Taylor \& Francis Group}, address = {Abingdon}, issn = {0143-6597}, doi = {10.1080/01436597.2021.1954901}, pages = {2724 -- 2746}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Jointly with the Global North, the rise of the Global South has come at a high cost to the environment. Driven by its high energy intensity and the use of fossil fuels, the South has contributed a significant portion of global emissions during the last 30 years, and is now contributing some 63\% of today's total GHG emissions (including land-use change and forestry). Similar to the Global North, the Global South's emissions are heavily concentrated: India and China alone account for some 60\% and the top 10 countries for some 78\% of the group's emissions, while some 120 countries account for only 22\%. Without highlighting such differences, it makes little sense to use the term 'Global South'. Its members are affected differently, and contribute differently to global climate change. They neither share a common view, nor do they pursue joint interests when it comes to international climate negotiations. Instead, they are organised into more than a dozen subgroups of the global climate regime. There is no single climate strategy for the Global South, and climate action will differ enormously from country to country. Furthermore, just and equitable transitions may be particularly challenging for some countries.}, language = {en} } @misc{FuhrHickmannKern2017, author = {Fuhr, Harald and Hickmann, Thomas and Kern, Kristine}, title = {The role of cities in multi-level climate governance}, series = {Current opinion in environmental sustainability}, volume = {30}, journal = {Current opinion in environmental sustainability}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {1877-3435}, doi = {10.1016/j.cosust.2017.10.006}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2017}, abstract = {The past two decades have witnessed widespread scholarly interest in the role of cities in climate policy-making. This research has considerably improved our understanding of the local level in the global response to climate change. The present article synthesizes the literature on local climate policies with respect to the 1.5 degrees C target. While most studies have focused on pioneering cities and networks, we contend that the broader impacts of local climate actions and their relationship to regional, national, and international policy frameworks have not been studied in enough detail. Against this backdrop, we introduce the concept of upscaling and contend that local climate initiatives must go hand in hand with higher-level policies and be better integrated into the multi-level governance system.}, language = {en} } @misc{Fuhr2020, author = {Fuhr, Harald}, title = {Rezension zu: Geopolitical economy of energy and anvironment : China and the European Union / Hrsg.: Amineh, Mehdi Parvizi ; Yang, Guang. - Leiden: Brill, 2017. - ISBN: 978-90-04-27310-8}, series = {Comparative sociology}, volume = {19}, journal = {Comparative sociology}, number = {1}, publisher = {Brill}, address = {Leiden}, issn = {1569-1322}, doi = {10.1163/15691330-12341522}, pages = {151 -- 153}, year = {2020}, language = {en} } @article{CampbellFuhr2004, author = {Campbell, Tim and Fuhr, Harald}, title = {Conclusions and policy lessons}, isbn = {0-8213-5707-7}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @article{Fuhr2004, author = {Fuhr, Harald}, title = {Introduction and Preview}, isbn = {0-8213-5707-7}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @article{Fuhr2004, author = {Fuhr, Harald}, title = {Context of change : decentralization and state reform in Latin America}, isbn = {0-8213-5707-7}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @article{CampbellFuhr2004, author = {Campbell, Tim and Fuhr, Harald}, title = {Research questions : inventing decentralized government}, isbn = {0-8213-5707-7}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @article{CampbellFuhr2004, author = {Campbell, Tim and Fuhr, Harald}, title = {Selection of cases and methods}, isbn = {0-8213-5707-7}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @article{Fuhr2004, author = {Fuhr, Harald}, title = {Modernizing a provincial public sector : an experiment in Mendoza, Argentina}, isbn = {0-8213-5707-7}, year = {2004}, language = {en} }
