随着两极的温室气体排放和气温持续上升,影响到无数人生命的极端天气事件造成的损失也在不断上升。与此同时,雄心勃勃的国际减排努力(京都、哥本哈根)已被证明在政治上无效或不可行。然而,适应性治理是有希望的--这一方法在一些地方社区取得了成功,全球其他社区也可以采取这种方法。这本书提供了对气候变化政策的政治和历史分析;展示了适应性治理如何在阿拉斯加巴罗和其他当地社区发挥作用;并提出了适应性治理作为气候变化制度的补充方法的理由。
As greenhouse gas emissions and temperatures at the poles continue to rise, so do damages from extreme weather events affecting countless lives. Meanwhile, ambitious international efforts to cut emissions (Kyoto, Copenhagen) have proved to be politically ineffective or infeasible. There is hope, however, in adaptive governance—an approach that has succeeded in some local communities and can be undertaken by others around the globe. This book provides a political and historical analysis of climate change policy; shows how adaptive governance has worked on the ground in Barrow, Alaska, and other local communities; and makes the case for adaptive governance as a complementary approach in the climate change regime.
