Sustainability and housing in municipal policy-making – interconnections and tensions
Housing accounts for approximately 20% of greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union, making it a key area for municipal climate policies. This paper examines the intersection of housing and environmental policies in three Finnish cities (Oulu, Tampere, Turku) and three German cities (Kiel, Mainz, Wiesbaden). Utilising data from policy documents and 49 interviews with local councillors, the study explores the perspectives on sustainability in…
Governing the Baltic Sea Region at critical junctures (1991–2021): How do transnational and intergovernmental organizations cope with external regional change
Since the end of the East-West conflict, various intergovernmental and transnational organizations have collectively governed the Baltic Sea Region. Exploring key features of the organizational architecture of three such organizations – HELCOM, the Council of the Baltic Sea States, and the Union of Baltic Cities – we ask how their institutions evolved in the aftermath of critical junctures affecting the region over the past three decades. Finding…
Conceptualizing “Green economy” in Russian academic debate
Green economy (GE) is a fairly new concept in the domestic discussion in Russia, which has lagged behind other developed economies in terms of environmental governance. This article examines how GE is conceptualized in the Russian academic discussion and how this debate reflects international conceptualizations of the concept. Drawing on a coding frame inspired by the international literature on GE, we find that the Russian academic discussion te…
Climate change and the governance of the Baltic Sea environment
This article expands the discussion of Baltic Sea environmental governance by examining the implications of climate change on governance. It scrutinizes the physical challenges posed by climate change and analyses how the existing governing system can meet these challenges. The findings indicate that the present governing system is limited and cannot capture future changes and feedback effects. Therefore, this article recommends that multiple gov…
Climate Denial Revisited: (Re)contextualising Russian Public Discourse on Climate Change during Putin 2.0
In this paper we examine the recent public discourse on climate change in Russia, with a special focus on the arguments denying the anthropogenic climate change. We scrutinize the ways in which denial arguments presented in the public media are tied to the changing Russian political and economic context, especially the steeper authoritarian turn in governance during President Putin’s third term, or Putin 2.0, and discuss the implications that the…

Russia and the Baltic Sea: Frames and spaces of environmental problems
The Baltic Sea is among the most polluted seas in the world, yet its protection in regional cooperation is often referred to as a success story of international environmental politics. Like other coastal countries, Russia is closely committed to the Baltic Sea environmental cooperation, although it does not have a specific “Baltic Sea environmental policy,” and the Baltic Sea environment is low on the list of political priorities. Based on interv…
The Governance of the Mitigation of the Baltic Sea Eutrophication: Exploring the Challenges of the Formal Governing System
This article focuses on the governing system of the mitigation of eutrophication in the Baltic Sea. Policies and measures of the Baltic Sea coastal countries, the macro--regional (HELCOM) level, and the level of the European Union are described and governance challenges explicated. We found that the main challenges at different governance levels include: differences between coastal countries in terms of environmental conditions including environm…
Russian climate politics: When science meets policy , by Elana Wilson Rowe

The Challenge of Bridging Science and Policy in the Baltic Sea Eutrophication Governance in Finland: The perspective of Science
A great ecological power in global climate policy? Framing climate change as a policy problem in Russian public discussion
The ways in which Russian public discussion translates climate change into a policy problem that identifies the phenomenon and defines a course of action are examined in order to shed light on the underlying structures of belief, perception and appreciation that shape Russian conduct toward global climate policy. The discussion distinguishes between three frames: the mission, national interest and duty. The mission frame defines climate policy as…
