One of the difficulties of writing about climate change governance is that one must address a moving target. Despite the wide impression of inaction or, at best, of action in slow motion, the negotiations move at such a hectic pace, often focusing on what to the outside world appear to be mere details but, on closer scrutiny, hard fought and highly controversial details, that it is difficult to keep abreast. Such speed explains perhaps the profusion of writings over technicalities or the sometimes inconsiderate attempts at launching new – and soon old – ideas, expressions, buzzwords, anecdotes. Conversely, it also explains the thriving literature on climate change policy broadly understood, encompassing legal aspects. The polyphony or even the cacophony in the literature is alas the price to pay for a powerful and creative body of analysis of climate policy. |
