There is now a palpable sense of optimism about the role of cities
and transnational city-networks in global climate governance. Yet,
amidst the euphoria, there is also a sense that the power that has
been ascribed to - and frequently assumed by - cities has been
overstated; that the power of cities and city-networks to make a
difference in global climate politics is not what it appears. This
book explores the implications of city-engagement in global climate
politics, outlining a theoretical framework that can be used to
understand the power of cities in relation to transnational
city-networks, multinational corporations and nation-states. The
book will be of interest to students and scholars of transnational
governance, global environmental politics and climate change.
