The fifth instalment of the CCC briefs, titled, What is Power in the Global Climate Negotiations?, is now available on our resources page.
What does it mean to be powerful in the UNFCCC process and who holds the most power? Different definitions of power can result in very different assessments, leading and possibly misleading the analyst to pay attention to certain actors and developments, while ignoring others. Departing from the usual data-driven approach of the CCC briefs, brief No. 5 will offer a short conceptual introduction to power theory in the climate change context at the global scale.
