"Emphasizing the idea of climate clubs (namely the coalition of the willing) among governments, companies, and/or international institutions, the book provides an analysis of the following aspects of the trade-climate linkage: formation of climate clubs; legitimacy and accountability; technological cooperation; green patents; how competition law hinders effective cooperation between companies seeking to produce sustainable goods; domestic policy preferences; whether certain states should legitimately be allowed to be free riders; and sanctions for noncompliance. This book contains three detailed case studies: a comparison of the U.S. and European Union (EU) Generalized System of Preferences programs, energy security in the Arab world, and EU-Russia energy trade relations"--Publisher's description. |
