Decentralization and environmental governance
Subnational governance levels play a pivotal role in biodiversity protection, as evidenced in multilevel democracies over recent decades. Yet while research on decentralization’s impact on environmental governance has expanded, it remains unclear whether granting regional authorities greater self-rule has improved biodiversity outcomes in coastal areas. To address this gap, this study employs a qualitative research design to assess Spain’s decent…
Subnational Climate Leadership Dynamics Among Under2 Coalition Members
This series explores the formal organisation of sub-national government and democracy on the one hand, and the necessities and practices of regions and cities on the other hand.In monographs, edited volumes and Palgrave Pivots, the series will consider the future of territorial governance and of territory-based democracy; the impact of hybrid forms of territorial government and functional governance on the traditional institutions of government a…
Climate obstruction and nationalism
Nationalism is notoriously an ideology that can fit opposite ideological and political necessities. Since 2020, an emerging literature exploring nationalism’s connections with climate change has developed. Yet, nationalism’s role in the decisive practice of climate obstruction has hitherto not been conceptually mapped. This integrative review inductively analyses various forms of nationalism, focusing on each form’s role in climate obstruction an…
Fossil fascism
The last decade witnessed a proliferation of literature on far-right nationalism and climate obstruction. Scholars referred to “fossil fascism” to discuss these trends. This article emphasises fossil fascism’s weaponisation of intermediary institutions to advance a gendered and racialised vision of society that feeds off fossil fuels. This aspect, we argue, distinguishes fossil fascism from other conceptualisations of the so-called “backlash” aga…
Comparing Regional and National Climate Policy Preferences
Recent research has uncovered positive connections between parties’ center-periphery and climate policy preferences when they compete in regional elections, with pro-periphery parties using climate concerns to bolster their territorial claims. However, the particular significance of climate change at the regional level, due to its more direct impacts in this arena, raises questions about the extent to which these parties replicate similar behavio…
Local preferences for the adoption and modification of climate policy instruments under a radical left government
Politicians and climate change
Politicians' engagement with climate change is the focus of an emerging literature, but this research has not been subjected to systematic analysis. To address this important gap, we perform a systematic review of 141 articles on politicians and climate change published between 1985 and 2021. We find a growing research area; almost half of the articles were published after 2018. Existing research is fragmented and focused on a small number of dem…
Protecting the climate to challenge the centre? Secessionism and climate policy preferences in Catalonia
Climate policy is mostly ruled by national governments, which in multi-level systems creates tensions with sub-national tiers. Recent research has suggested that political parties' climate policy preferences and their stances on decentralisation are associated as pro-peripheral parties tend to assume the role of climate pioneers not solely due to environmental concerns, but also as a means to challenge the central authority of the state. In this …
La reestructuració de la competició electoral a la Comunitat Valenciana (2011-2019)
La competició electoral a la Comunitat Valenciana generalment s’ha articulat amb base en els eixos esquerra-dreta i la identitat nacional (p. ex. Martín Cubas, 2007). Encara que la identitat dels electors ha romàs generalment estable, sí que s’han produït alguns canvis entre 2011 i 2019 que, possiblement, han facilitat l’emergència de partits polítics nous. El propòsit principal del text és mostrar en quina mesura s’han produït canvis en els espa…
Climate Policy Ambition
National policy ambition plays a central role in climate change governance under the Paris Agreement and is now a focus of rapidly emerging literature. In this contribution, we argue that policy ambition can be captured by the level of national policy activity, which in accordance with the existing literature should be referred to as “policy density.” In this study, we measure climate policy density by drawing on three publicly available database…
