This volume showcases the diversity of the politics and practices
of climate change governance across Southeast Asia. Through a
series of country-level case studies and regional perspectives, the
authors in this volume explore the complexities and contested
nature of climate governance in what can be considered as one of
the most dynamic and multi-faceted regions of the world. They
reflect upon the tensions between authoritarian and democratic
climate change governance, the multiple roles of civil society and
non-state interventions, and the conflicts between state planning
and market-driven climate change governance. Shedding light on
climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts in Southeast Asia,
this book presents the various formal and informal institutions of
climate change governance, their relevant actors, procedures, and
policies. Empirical findings from a diverse set of environments are
merged into a cross-country comparison that allows for elaborating
on similar patterns whilst at the same time highlighting the
distinct features of climate change governance in Southeast Asia.
Drawing on case studies from all Southeast Asian countries, namely
Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar,
the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste, and Viet Nam,
this book will be of great interest to students, scholars, and
practitioners dealing with climate change and environmental
governance.

This book calls for a collective strengthening of the progressive
dimension of climate action in the face of continued myopic
governmental response. Delina argues that consent must be revoked
and power realigned to avoid suffering the consequences of unabated
climate change. He looks back at the mechanisms that make previous
social mobilizations successful to design strategies that would
advance a new hegemonic agenda. This new agenda calls for the
culturing of contemporary human societies towards a hegemony
characterized by just emancipations and sustainable
transformations. Mining select histories from India, the United
States, the Philippines, and Burma, the book explores topics
including visioning and identity building; framing; triggering
pressure; boosting publicity; and diversifying networks as
strategic tools to the repertoires of climate action groups,
organizations, and institutions. It will be of great value to
academics and practitioners, as well as to anyone interested in how
to actively combat climate change.
Climate change remains a challenge that needs to be addressed at
its core, particularly the rapid reduction of anthropogenic
greenhouse gas emissions. This book discusses strategies for
climate actions by synthesizing insights from a set of
international 'contemporary social action group's' surveys. Based
on these Delina introduces a synthesis of mechanisms for generating
change, designed around 5 main themes: relationships (relating);
value-based messages (messaging); alternatives (visioning);
diversity (webbing); and communication (interacting). This book
will be of great value to all academics and practitioners
interested in the future development of our climate.
