LOCAL MEETS GLOBAL in EARTH SYSTEM GOVERNANCE: COLLABORATION OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS and INTERNATIONAL AGENCIES in CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION and MITIGATION IN TURKEY

Year 2019, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 204 - 215, 31.12.2019

Abstract



Climate change is a global environmental problem, a perfect example of
complex interdependence and requires novel approaches like earth system
governance. Although states are the major players in earth system governance and
responsible of dealing with climate change, some states may
not be so keen on
committing themselves to this end. In parallel,
non-state and sub-national actors like local governments, act independent
of their governments in committing themselves to emission reduction targets as
a part of global networks of local government initiatives against climate
change. This article analyses practices of some Turkish municipalities, which bypassed
the national level and developed relatively progressive policies on climate
change in collaboration with global networks of local governments. Although
there is a rising impact of sub-national players through
municipal voluntarism and strategic urbanism, international actors also play a very crucial
role in facilitating policy change through providing news ideas and finances
for policy change.
