The Organization of Global Negotiations - Constructing the Climate Change Regime (Hardcover)

* An enormous contribution to the understanding of climate negotiations - the most complex and challenging international regime to date* Explains how governments need to organize ever more demanding multilateral negotiations successfully* Essential reading for those involved in climate negotiations and in planning or participating in other high-level negotiationsThe global negotiations over climate change involved over 180 countries and innumerable observers and other participants, addressing enormously complex and economically vital issues with conflicting agendas. For the UN to create an effective and well-supported international regime required enormous and very skilful organization. Using the metaphor of a theatrical production, this book shows how this was accomplished to produce the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Kyoto Protocol and the subsequent Bonn and Marrakesh Accords. The author draws out the lessons and implications for other intricate and far-reaching negotiations, not all of which have succeeded so far, such as the WTO trade negotiations at Seattle and Cancun. She identifies six key elements that determine organizational effectiveness as a necessary condition for successful outcomes.
