T1 - The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat as an orchestrator in global climate policymaking JF - International review of administrative sciences : an international journal of comparative public administration N2 - Scholars have recently devoted increasing attention to the role and function of international bureaucracies in global policymaking. Some of them contend that international public officials have gained significant political influence in various policy fields. Compared to other international bureaucracies, the political leeway of the Secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change has been considered rather limited. Due to the specific problem structure of the policy domain of climate change, national governments endowed this intergovernmental treaty secretariat with a relatively narrow mandate. However, this article argues that in the past few years, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat has gradually loosened its straitjacket and expanded its original spectrum of activity by engaging different sub-national and non-state actors into a policy dialogue using facilitative orchestration as a mode of governance. The present article explores the recent evolution of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat and investigates the way in which it initiates, guides, broadens and strengthens sub-national and non-state climate actions to achieve progress in the international climate negotiations.
Points for practitioners
The Secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change has lately adopted new roles and functions in global climate policymaking. While previously seen as a rather technocratic body that, first and foremost, serves national governments, the Climate Secretariat increasingly interacts with sub-national governments, civil society organizations and private companies to push the global response to climate change forward. We contend that the Climate Secretariat can contribute to global climate policymaking by coordinating and steering the initiatives of non-nation-state actors towards coherence and good practice.

ED - Andersen, Mikael Skou ED - Tobin, Paul T1 - Multilevel climate governance in Brazil and Indonesia BT - domestic pioneership and leadership in the Global South T2 - Climate governance across the globe : Pioneers, leaders and followers N2 - Focusing on forest policy and urban climate politics in Brazil and Indonesia, the primary objective of this chapter is to identify domestic pioneers and leaders who, compared to other sectors, governmental levels or jurisdictions within the same nation-state, move ‘ahead of the troops’ (Liefferink and Wurzel, 2017: 2-3). The chapter focuses especially on the role of multilevel governance in bringing about pioneership and leadership and on the different types of that have emerged. It also explores whether and, if so, to what extent domestic pioneers and leaders attract followers and whether there are signs of sustained domestic leadership. The chapter identifies the actors that constitute pioneers and leaders and assesses the processes which lead to their emergence. The chapter authors take up Wurzel et al.’s (2019) call to open up the black box of the nation-state. But instead of stressing the role of non-state actors, the chapter authors focus on vertical interactions among different governmental levels within nation states. The main argument put forward is that international and transnational processes, incentives, and ideas often trigger the development of domestic pioneership and leadership. Such processes, however, cannot be understood properly if domestic politics and dynamics across governmental levels within the nation-state are not taken into account.

T1 - REDD plus and the reconfiguration of public authority in the forest sector BT - a comparative case study of Indonesia and Brazil JF - Global Forest Governance and Climate Change N2 - Since the 1980s, central governments have decentralized forestry to local governments in many countries of the Global South. More recently, REDD+ has started to impact forest policy-making in these countries by providing incentives to ensure a national-level approach to reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation. Höhne et al. analyze to what extent central governments have rebuilt capacity at the national level, imposed regulations from above, and interfered in forest management by local governments for advancing REDD+. Using the examples of Brazil and Indonesia, the chapter illustrates that while REDD+ has not initiated a large-scale recentralization in the forestry sector, it has supported the reinforcement and pooling of REDD+ related competences at the central government level.

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.

JF - Ecological economics N2 - This article compares two carbon governance instruments - the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD+) - to assess lessons from the former for the latter regarding effectiveness and legitimacy of such instruments. The article argues that the CDM has a relatively high degree of output-oriented legitimacy resulting in effectiveness and some input-oriented legitimacy, with few discernible tradeoffs between them. In contrasting this to REDD+, the hypotheses are advanced that (i) output-oriented legitimacy/effectiveness can again be achieved but that (ii) a higher degree of input-oriented legitimacy is necessary for REDD+ and thus also a certain trade-off between the two forms of legitimacy can be expected. This is shown through comparing the technologies and methodologies, economic rationales, political support, regulatory structures, and environmental impacts of both instruments.

Second, the paper summarizes the main messages of the articles by identifying three red threads that are dominant in all four contributions. These are the strong focus of all authors on ideational forces, an emphasis on the role of academics and the description of complexities of local-global interdependencies. Third, some common blind spots are identified that merit future research.

Juni 2004 fand die sechste Konferenz des Forschungskreises Vereinte Nationen an der Universität Potsdam statt. Die Konferenz befaßte sich mit dem Thema „Integrative Konzepte in der Reform der Vereinten Nationen". Kennzeichnend für die „Potsdamer UNO-Konferenzen", die traditionell am letzten Wochenende im Juni veranstaltet werden, sind die Verbindung von Wissenschaft und Praxis auf der einen Seite und die Beteiligung unterschiedlicher Disziplinen auf der anderen. Sieben Referate beschäftigten sich mit bisher nicht oder nicht genügend in der Arbeit der Vereinten Nationen einbezogenen Aspekten bei der Struktur-Reform. Die nachstehend abgedruckten sechs Beiträge - von Dr. Jochen Prantl, der zum Thema „Informelle Staatengruppen als Instrument zur Konfliktregulierung: Auswirkungen auf die Arbeitsweise des Sicherheitsrates der Vereinten Nationen" referiert hatte, lag bei der Drucklegung der Broschüre kein Manuskript vor - und die zugehörigen Diskussionen, die hier zusammengefaßt wiedergegeben werden, geben ein anschauliches Bild von der Komplexität der Aufgabe „UN-Reform". Die damit verbundenen Fragen, die für das zukünftige Funktionieren der Vereinten Nationen, aber auch für das Klima innerhalb der internationalen Gemeinschaft sehr wichtig sind, werden in dieser Dokumentation diskutiert. Die im Forschungskreis vertretene deutschsprachige UN-Forschung machte auf der Konferenz deutlich, daß man zu kurz greift, wenn sich die Reformdiskussion auf den ständigen Sitz für die Bundesrepublik Deutschland im Sicherheitsrat beschränkt. Der Forschungskreis möchte mit dieser Broschüre allen Interessierten die Möglichkeit geben, andere, nicht minder wichtige Aspekte dieser Diskussion kennenzulernen. Der Forschungskreis dankt der Juristischen Fakultät der Universität Potsdam für die Gastfreundschaft und dem MenschenRechtsZentrum der Universität Potsdam für die Kooperation bei der Organisation der Konferenz.

In the first part, the paper highlights the borderline between security studies and international political economy. The second part of the paper asks how successful the international community is in this fight. The authors show that the idea of seizing terrorist funds and denying access to the international financial system is not a very promising one. They conclude that, so far, results have been mixed and that only a political approach to the problem promises a solution.
