Dr Robert Falkner - International relations and global action on climate change
In this lecture, Dr Robert Falkner explores the challenges of international action on climate change from the perspective of politics and international relations. This talk includes an introduction to international relations theory, how this can be applied to the current climate change negotiations, and contrasts the top-down “global deal” approach with a “building blocks” approach to international climate negotiations.
