Die internationale Klimapolitik ist an einem Wendepunkt angekommen. Die Annahme des Kyoto-Protokolls ist ein großer Schritt in dem Versuch der Menschheit, die schädlichen Folgen des Klimawandels zu begrenzen. Dieses Buch erklärt die naturwissenschafltichen, ökonomischen sowie politischen Bedingungen des Treibhauseffektes und erläutert die Hintergründe der Annahme des Kyoto-Protokolls. So wird deutlich, wie stark machtpolitische Interessen die Herausbildung internationaler Normen bestimmen.
Breaking the impasse : forging an EU leadership initiative on climate change ; a policy paper
(2001)
The adoption of the Kyoto Protocol in December 1997 was a major achievement in the endeavour to tackle the problem of global climate change at the dawn of the 21st century. After many years of involvement in the negotiation process, the book's two internationally recognised authors now offer the international community a firsthand and inside perspective of the debate on the Kyoto Protocol. The book provides a comprehensive scholarly analysis of the history and content of the Protocol itself as well as of the economic, political and legal implications of its implementation. It also presents a perspective for the further development of the climate regime. These important features make this book an indispensable working tool for policy makers, negotiators, academics and all those actively involved and interested in climate change issues in both the developed and developing world.
