全球环境治理被广泛认为是一个特别网络化的问题。谈判场所不仅是正式决策过程的场所，也是各种行为者密切联系的场所。使用正式的社会网络分析来分析全球环境政治中的网络化治理和治理网络，迄今为止主要依赖于相对容易获得的数据，例如正式组织或条约的成员资格。这些分析提供了有用的粗略分析，以帮助思考环境治理的社会结构，但相对有限的推论可以得出网络分析可以帮助理解的关键过程，如学习，扩散，和其他形式的机构互动。本文提出了如何推进该方法在该领域的价值，重点是演员谁弥补了在银娱决策过程中的个人网络。因此，谈判网站可以成为收集有关这些网络的数据的重要网站，特别是通过直接观察互动，密集的简短访谈和调查。
Global environmental governance (GEG) is widely recognized as particularly networked. And negotiation sites are sites not only of formal decision-making processes but also of intense networking by various actors. Use of formal social network analysis to analyze both networked governance and governance networks in global environmental politics has to date mostly rested on relatively easy-to-get data, such as membership in formal organizations or treaties. These analyses give useful broad-brush analyses to help think about the social structure of environmental governance, but relatively limited inferences can be drawn about key processes that network analysis can help understand, such as learning, diffusion, and other forms of institutional interaction. This article proposes how to advance the value of the method in the field by focusing on the personal networks of actors who make up the decision-making processes in GEG. Negotiation sites could thus become important sites for collection of data about these networks, through direct observation of interactions, intensive short interviews, and surveys, in particular.
