Since the fourth report of the International Panel on Climate Change published in 2007 the problem of global climate change and the transition to a low carbon economy has moved to the center of the international system, joining the more traditional “high politics” of international security and governance of the global economy. The UN multilateral negotiations are stagnated because several reasons, being among the most important the large number of players (almost 200 hundred countries) and the consensual rule for decision making. Actually some major powers are crucial in producing the problem of global warming and have the capacity of solving it through the transition to a low carbon economy: United States, China, European Union, Japan, Brazil, India, Russia, Mexico, Indonesia, Canada, South Korea, Australia, South Africa and Turkey. They represent more than 80% of global GDP and carbon emissions. In spite of the stagnation of UN negotiations since 2008 most major power have started or deepened national energy/climate policies oriented toward the transition to alow carbon economic growth. Revista Brasileira de Política Internacional – RBPI (http://www.scielo.br/rbpi) will publish in November 2012 a special issue organized by Eduardo Viola, Full Professor of the Institute of International Relations of the University of Brasília. This number aims at evaluating the state of global climate governance, including the impasses of the multilateral negotiations, the potentialities of the G20 as an alternative arena of negotiations and the efforts of major powers in making a transition to a low carbon economy. Thus, we welcome submissions focused on the following thematic axes: multilateral negotiations, the G20 and other plurilateral arenas, the international interface between climate/energy policy and trade/financial policy, national energy/forest/climate policies and politics of major powers, bilateral/plurilateral partnerships among major powers. All submissions should be original and unpublished, must be in the range of 50,000 characters (including spaces and footnotes), must be written in English (it is necessary to be fully correct English for non natives of the language), including an abstract of less then 70 words [and 3 key-words in English]. Follow the Chicago System. The deadline for submissions is August 31 2012. Submissions must be done at http://www.scielo.br/rbpi (On Line Submissions). Filed under: Notícias
