Global warming is established as the major environmental issue in
the international political agenda. It is commonly understood to be
the most difficult problem to solve politically. Whilst there are
many arguments about what should be done about global warming,
there have been few attempts to explain the politics surrounding
it. This text looks at the major theories within the discipline of
international relations, and considers how these might be able to
provide accounts of the emergence of global warming as a political
issue. After discussing the dominant neo-realist and neo-liberal
institutionalist models, the book concludes that both political
economy approaches and these developing discursive approaches have
much to offer in helping us understand the internatioanl politics
of global warming. The book should be useful for all those trying
to build an understanding of international relations in general and
of international environmental problems in particular.
