As global climate change and related issues become increasingly pressing forhumanity, the search continues for ways to effectively cope with this crisis.One of the most controversial and challenging areas in this circumstance isthe relationship between developed and developing countries, where globalleaders continue efforts to reach compromise that ensures a sustainable andequitable future. At the heart of this debate lies the Kyoto Protocol’s CleanDevelopment Mechanism (CDM). In this book, the author examines South-North equity in climate change mitigation and assesses what effect the CDMmay be having. The study begins with an innovative approach to placing theCDM in the international development theory landscape. From this context,the author examines the architecture of the CDM and assesses assumptionsabout equity that are implicit in it. Attention is then turned to emerging CDMoperations data and trends, which are used as the basis for assessing presentand potential effects of the CDM on South-North equity in climate changemitigation.This book is addressed to scholars and professionals interested in climatechange governance and South-North international development issues generally.It is also a helpful resource for potential CDM investors and stakeholders.
