Abstract

Environmental governance is increasingly challenged by global flows, which connect distant places through trade, investment and movement of people. To date, research on this topic has been dispersed across multiple fields and diverse theoretical perspectives. We present the results of a systematic literature review of 120 journal articles on the environmental governance of global flows and their environmental impacts, employing the notion of telecoupling as a common analytical lens.

Six themes emerged, which can guide a comparative and policy-relevant research agenda on governing global telecoupling: (1) advancement of problem-centered research (as opposed to studying existing governance arrangements), (2) displacement of environmental burdens from Global North to South from a telecoupling perspective, (3) environmental governance of telecoupling between Global South countries, (4) policy coherence in governing global flows, (5) cross-scalar interactions between private and public governance and (6) combinations of governance arrangements to effectively address environmental problems in telecoupled settings.

全球远耦合系统中的环境治理:绘制地形走向综合研究议程

通过贸易、投资和人员流动将遥远的地方连接起来的全球流动日益挑战环境治理。迄今为止，关于这一主题的研究已经分散在多个领域和不同的理论视角。我们采用远耦合的概念作为常见的分析视角，对120篇关于全球流动的环境治理及其环境影响的期刊文章进行了系统的文献综述。出现了六个主题，可以指导关于治理全球远耦合的比较和与政策有关的研究议程:(1)推进以问题为中心的研究(而不是研究现有的治理安排);(2)从远耦合的角度将环境负担从全球北方转移到南方;(3)全球南方国家之间远耦合的环境治理;(5)私人和公共治理之间的跨标量互动;(6)治理安排的组合，以有效解决远耦合环境下的环境问题。
