Modern environmentalism originated in the West, beginning when European and North American countries first began to experience the great transformation of industrialization and urbanization. East Asia is an eager learner of the Western modernity; in the last century, the region has mastered the art of manufacturing and emerged as the global export powerhouse. Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan are vibrant and stable democracies, whereas China engineered a sort of “political miracle” as its Leninist control drew strength from, rather than being subverted by, capitalist development. Following these economic and political achievements, the four above-mentioned countries are making huge strides toward better environmental governance. Even climate denialism, which is prevalent among some of the United States top politicians, only found a weak rejoinder in East Asia. Effective Advocacy offers a long-awaited environmental assessment of Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and China, with additional glances at Hong Kong and Indonesia. This ground-breaking book is built upon a decade of research across this region, generating valuable data on the activities of environmental NGOs (ENGOs) and making use of interviews with key participants. Given the vast scope of the research topic and its internal heterogeneity, this book is a landmark achievement simply because nothing like it has been published previously. While Effective Advocacy appears to have been written primarily for Western readers, it also contributes to mutual dialogue among East Asian policymakers and activists, whose exchanges are at best intermittent and episodic despite their geographical proximity and cultural affinity. There has been a widespread understanding that a shared Confucian heritage in East Asia bestowed deference toward authorities, thus frustrating the efforts of promoting changes from below. Mary Alice Haddad bursts this myth by demonstrating that advocacy efforts in this region are likely to be successful, even in authoritarian China. At the same time, she finds more environmental actions directed toward pollution, and less toward climate change, compared to other regions. With in-depth case studies, Haddad seeks to discover the success formula of East Asian environmentalists. Effective Advocacy unravels a pragmatic, cooperative, gradualist logic behind these successful actions. Positive results are more likely to come when environmentalists have friends inside the government, build trusting relationships with corporations, and target less ambitious goals,
现代环保主义起源于西方,始于欧洲和北美国家首次经历工业化和城市化的巨大转型。东亚是西方现代性的热切学习者;上个世纪,该地区掌握了制造业的艺术,并成为全球出口大国。日本、韩国和台湾都是充满活力和稳定的民主国家,而中国则创造了一种“政治奇迹”,因为其列宁主义控制从资本主义发展中汲取力量,而不是被资本主义发展所颠覆。继这些经济和政治成就之后,上述四国正在朝着更好的环境治理迈出巨大步伐。即使是在美国一些高级政客中普遍存在的否认气候变化的态度,在东亚也只得到了微弱的回应。有效倡导提供了期待已久的日本、韩国、台湾和中国的环境评估,并对香港和印度尼西亚进行了额外的考察。这本开创性的书建立在该地区十年的研究基础上,产生了关于环境非政府组织活动的宝贵数据,并利用了对主要参与者的采访。鉴于研究主题的广泛性及其内部的异质性,这本书是一项里程碑式的成就,因为以前从未出版过类似的书。虽然《有效倡导》似乎主要是为西方读者撰写的,但它也有助于东亚政策制定者和活动家之间的相互对话,尽管他们的地理位置接近,文化渊源深厚,但他们的交流充其量只是断断续续的。人们普遍认为,东亚共同的儒家传统赋予了对当局的尊重,从而阻碍了推动下层变革的努力。玛丽·爱丽丝·哈达德(Mary Alice Haddad)打破了这一神话,她证明,即使在专制的中国,该地区的宣传努力也可能取得成功。与此同时,她发现,与其他地区相比,针对污染的环境行动更多,而针对气候变化的行动更少。通过深入的案例研究,哈达德试图发现东亚环保主义者的成功公式。有效的宣传揭示了这些成功行动背后的务实、合作、渐进的逻辑。当环保主义者在政府内部有朋友,与企业建立信任关系,并以不那么雄心勃勃的目标为目标时,积极的结果更有可能出现,

Abstract This Forum article reports on a meta-review of more than 19,000 published works on water security, of which less than 1 percent explicitly focus on race or ethnicity. This is deeply concerning, because it indicates that race and ethnicity—crucial factors that affect the provision of safe, reliable water—continue to be ignored in academic and policy literatures. In response to this finding the Forum calls for building intersectional water security frameworks that recognize how empirical drivers of social and environmental inequality vary both within and across groups. Intersectional frameworks of water security can retain policy focus on the key material concerns regarding access, safety, and the distribution of water-related risks. They can also explicitly incorporate issues of race and ethnicity alongside other vectors of inequality to address key, overlooked concerns of water security.
摘要这篇论坛文章报道了对19000多篇已发表的水安全著作的元评论,其中只有不到1%的著作明确关注种族或族裔。这令人深感担忧,因为这表明种族和民族——影响安全可靠供水的关键因素——在学术和政策文献中仍然被忽视。针对这一发现,论坛呼吁建立跨部门的水安全框架,认识到社会和环境不平等的经验驱动因素在群体内部和群体之间是如何变化的。水安全的跨部门框架可以将政策重点放在与水相关的风险的获取、安全和分配方面的关键物质问题上。它们还可以明确地将种族和族裔问题与其他不平等因素结合起来,以解决水安全方面被忽视的关键问题。

Multilateral Climate Finance Coordination: Politics and Depoliticization in Practice 多边气候融资协调:实践中的政治与去政治化

Abstract The governance of public climate finance for mitigation and adaptation in developing countries is fragmented on both the international and national levels, with a high diversity of actors with overlapping mandates, preferences, and areas of expertise. In the absence of one unifying actor or institution, coordination among actors has emerged as a response to this fragmentation. In this article, we study the coordination efforts of the two most important multilateral climate funds, the Climate Investment Funds (CIF) and the Green Climate Fund (GCF), on the global level as well as within two recipient countries, Kenya and Zambia. The CIF and the GCF are anchored within the World Bank and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, respectively, and represent two diverging perspectives on climate finance. We find that on both levels, coordination was depoliticized by treating it as a technical exercise, rendering invisible the political divergences among actors. The implications of this depoliticization are that both funds coordinate mainly with actors with similar preferences, and consequently, coordination did not achieve its objectives. The article contributes to the literatures on coordination, climate finance, and environmental governance by showing how a response to the fragmentation of climate governance did not overcome political fault lines but rather reinforced them.
摘要发展中国家用于缓解和适应的公共气候融资的管理在国际和国家层面都是分散的,参与者的多样性很高,任务、偏好和专业领域重叠。在没有一个统一的行动者或机构的情况下,行动者之间的协调已成为对这种分裂的回应。在这篇文章中,我们研究了气候投资基金和绿色气候基金这两个最重要的多边气候基金在全球以及肯尼亚和赞比亚这两个受援国内部的协调工作。CIF和GCF分别以世界银行和《联合国气候变化框架公约》为基础,代表了气候融资的两种不同观点。我们发现,在这两个层面上,协调都是非政治化的,因为它被视为一种技术活动,使行动者之间的政治分歧看不见。这种非政治化的影响是,这两个基金主要与偏好相似的行为者进行协调,因此,协调没有实现其目标。这篇文章为协调、气候融资和环境治理方面的文献做出了贡献,展示了对气候治理碎片化的回应如何没有克服政治断层线,反而强化了这些断层线。

Institutional Adaptation in Slow Motion: Zooming In on Desertification Governance 慢镜头中的制度适应:沙漠化治理的放大

Abstract The ability of multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs) to keep pace with their changing circumstances is crucial for a more effective global environmental governance. Yet, we know little about how new institutional design features are taken up by MEAs, allowing them to evolve over time. Building on Kingdon’s multiple streams theory, I conceive the development of new institutional design features as the association between streams of problems, solutions, and political receptivity at critical moments. I apply this framework to two features introduced within the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) framework and find that the main design entrepreneurs were the UNCCD Secretariat and independent scientists. The article provides important insight into characteristics that can make MEAs more adaptive. Namely, treaty bodies able to generate feedback about problems, push for solutions, and provide windows of opportunity for advocates to present and revise their proposals are found critical to the development of new design features.
多边环境协定适应环境变化的能力对实现更有效的全球环境治理至关重要。然而,我们对多边环境协定如何采用新的制度设计特征知之甚少,从而使它们能够随着时间的推移而发展。基于金登的多流理论,我将新制度设计特征的发展设想为关键时刻问题流、解决方案流和政治接受度之间的联系。我将这一框架应用于《联合国防治荒漠化公约》框架中引入的两个特征,发现主要的设计企业家是《联合国防治荒漠化公约》秘书处和独立科学家。本文提供了关于使mea更具适应性的特征的重要见解。也就是说,条约机构能够产生关于问题的反馈,推动解决方案,并为倡导者提供机会来展示和修改他们的提案,这对于开发新的设计特征至关重要。

China in Transnational Extractives Governance: A Mapping Exercise 跨国采掘业治理中的中国:一项测绘工作

China became one of the biggest players in the global extractive resource supply chain, along with increasing extractive resource demand for green industries. Interestingly, over the last two decades, Chinese actors started participating in transnational extractive governance initiatives (TEGI) supporting transparency, a norm for governance-by-disclosure. This article aims to answer the question of what types of Chinese actors engage in what TEGIs regarding transparency. Based on mapping forty-eight TEGIs, this article shows a nuanced pattern of China’s involvement in extractives governance beyond a dualistic approach to China in global governance—whether China is a threat or nonthreat. Importantly, China does not act as a unified monolithic actor; rather, different types of actors engage TEGIs distinctively. Chinese corporations are most actively engaging in thin transparency TEGIs lacking stringent verification rules and featuring limited multistakeholder participation. It could potentially accelerate the risk of green washing of those companies and disempower weaker actors.
随着绿色产业对采掘资源的需求不断增加,中国成为全球采掘资源供应链中最大的参与者之一。有趣的是,在过去的二十年里,中国行为者开始参与支持透明度的跨国采掘式治理倡议(TEGI),这是一种通过披露进行治理的规范。本文旨在回答什么类型的中国行为者参与了关于透明度的TEGI的问题。在绘制48个TEGI的基础上,本文展示了中国参与采掘业治理的微妙模式,超越了全球治理中对中国的二元方法——无论中国是威胁还是非威胁。重要的是,中国并不是一个统一的单一行动者;相反,不同类型的行动者不同地参与TEGI。中国企业最积极地参与透明度较低的TEGI,缺乏严格的验证规则,且多方利益相关者的参与有限。这可能会加速这些公司被绿色清洗的风险,并剥夺较弱的参与者的权力。

Diversifying Boundary Organizations: The Making of a Global Platform for Indigenous (and Local) Knowledge in the UNFCCC 多样化的边界组织:在《气候公约》中建立土著(和地方)知识全球平台

The creation of the Local Communities and Indigenous Peoples Platform under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) set out to incorporate Indigenous and local knowledge into the science–policy landscape of the climate field. The Platform is a crucial case of institutional change, as it signals an incipient shift from a science-centric toward a pluralistic approach to knowledge in global climate governance. This article traces this process of change in the politics and practices underlying the establishment and design of the Platform as an interface for Indigenous and local knowledge holders. The analysis shows that the sui generis design of the Platform was the product of bricolage (recombination) and translation (recontextualization) of disparate elements with the purpose of accommodating various political demands in an altogether new kind of knowledge–policy interface: a diverse boundary organization. The article makes an empirical contribution to the historical development of knowledge politics in the UNFCCC and a theoretical contribution to the study of boundary organizations by advancing a broader conceptualization that transcends science-centric approaches.
根据《联合国气候变化框架公约》(UNFCCC)创建的地方社区和土著人民平台旨在将土著和地方知识纳入气候领域的科学政策版图。该平台是制度变革的一个关键案例,因为它标志着全球气候治理从以科学为中心向多元化知识方法的初步转变。本文追溯了作为土著和地方知识持有者界面的平台的建立和设计背后的政治和实践的变化过程。分析表明,平台的独特设计是不同元素的拼凑(重组)和翻译(重新文本化)的产物,目的是在一种全新的知识-政策界面中适应各种政治需求:一个多样化的边界组织。本文通过提出超越以科学为中心的方法的更广泛的概念,对《联合国气候变化框架公约》中知识政治的历史发展做出了实证贡献,并对边界组织的研究做出了理论贡献。

The Security–Sustainability Nexus: Lithium Onshoring in the Global North 安全-可持续性关系:全球北方的锂在岸

Abstract The political economy of lithium, a “critical mineral” for the renewable energy transition, is marked by two striking developments. First, Global North governments that have historically offshored mining are onshoring lithium to enhance “supply chain security.” Second, these governments have committed to “sustainably sourcing” lithium. In this article, I theorize both developments in terms of a novel security–sustainability nexus: an interlocking set of policies and justifications that promote lithium extraction and emphasize the environmental credentials of Global North mining. The security–sustainability nexus evidences an alignment between state and corporate interests. For public officials, onshoring policies counter China’s “dominance” over battery supply chains. For mining and auto firms, onshoring translates into lucrative incentives, supply security, and reputational benefits. However, despite this state–corporate alignment, the tensions within the security–sustainability nexus illuminate the contradictions of green capitalism. I conclude that the geopolitical and socioenvironmental conflicts over the material foundations of the energy transition are reshaping the inequalities linked to extractive sectors.
摘要锂是可再生能源转型的“关键矿物”,其政治经济有两个显著的发展。首先,历史上一直将采矿业离岸的全球北方政府正在将锂离岸,以加强“供应链安全”。其次,这些政府承诺“可持续采购”锂。在这篇文章中,我从一种新的安全-可持续性关系的角度对这两种发展进行了理论化:一套相互关联的政策和理由,促进锂开采,并强调全球北方采矿的环境资质。安全与可持续性的关系证明了国家和企业利益之间的一致性。对于政府官员来说,离岸政策与中国在电池供应链上的“主导地位”背道而驰。对于矿业和汽车公司来说,离岸外包转化为利润丰厚的激励措施、供应安全和声誉效益。然而,尽管存在这种国家与企业的结盟,但安全与可持续性之间的紧张关系揭示了绿色资本主义的矛盾。我的结论是,围绕能源转型物质基础的地缘政治和社会环境冲突正在重塑与采掘业相关的不平等。

Ambient energy harvesting has great potential to contribute to sustainable development and address growing environmental challenges. Converting waste energy from energy-intensive processes and systems (e.g. combustion engines and furnaces) is crucial to reducing their environmental impact and achieving net-zero emissions. Compact energy harvesters will also be key to powering the exponentially growing smart devices ecosystem that is part of the Internet of Things, thus enabling futuristic applications that can improve our quality of life (e.g. smart homes, smart cities, smart manufacturing, and smart healthcare). To achieve these goals, innovative materials are needed to efficiently convert ambient energy into electricity through various physical mechanisms, such as the photovoltaic effect, thermoelectricity, piezoelectricity, triboelectricity, and radiofrequency wireless power transfer. By bringing together the perspectives of experts in various types of energy harvesting materials, this Roadmap provides extensive insights into recent advances and present challenges in the field. Additionally, the Roadmap analyses the key performance metrics of these technologies in relation to their ultimate energy conversion limits. Building on these insights, the Roadmap outlines promising directions for future research to fully harness the potential of energy harvesting materials for green energy anytime, anywhere.

Converting waste energy from energy-intensive processes and systems (e.g. combustion engines and furnaces) is crucial to reducing their environmental impact and achieving net-zero emissions. Compact energy harvesters will also be key to powering the exponentially growing smart devices ecosystem that is part of the Internet of Things, thus enabling futuristic applications that can improve our quality of life (e.g. smart homes, smart cities, smart manufacturing, and smart healthcare). To achieve these goals, innovative materials are needed to efficiently convert ambient energy into electricity through various physical mechanisms, such as the photovoltaic effect, thermoelectricity, piezoelectricity, triboelectricity, and radiofrequency wireless power transfer. By bringing together the perspectives of experts in various types of energy harvesting materials, this Roadmap provides extensive insights into recent advances and present challenges in the field. Additionally, the Roadmap analyses the key performance metrics of these technologies in relation to their ultimate energy conversion limits.

Reply: The Persistent Absence of Empirical Evidence for Free-Riding in Global Climate Politics 答复:全球气候政治搭便车的经验证据持续缺乏
IF 4.8 2区 社会学 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES Pub Date : 2022-12-15 DOI: 10.1162/glep_c_00700
M. Aklin, M. Mildenberger
Abstract Kennard and Schnakenberg (KS) raise three concerns regarding Aklin and Mildenberger (“Prisoners of the Wrong Dilemma: Why Distributive Conflict, Not Collective Action, Characterizes the Politics of Climate Change,” Global Environmental Politics 20 (4): 4–27). In this response, we delineate where we agree and where we disagree with KS. We then consider whether the model presented by KS changes our assessment that free-riding concerns are not currently the binding constraint on global climate politics. We conclude with a refined statement of our original claim.
摘要Kennard和Schnakenberg(KS)对Aklin和Mildenberger提出了三个问题(“错误困境的囚徒:为什么分配冲突而非集体行动是气候变化政治的特征”,《全球环境政治》20(4):4-27)。在这个回应中,我们描述了我们在哪里同意KS,在哪里不同意KS。然后,我们考虑KS提出的模型是否改变了我们的评估,即搭便车问题目前不是全球气候政治的约束因素。最后,我们对我们最初的索赔作了精辟的陈述。
