Full Description
This important volume sheds light on how the major Asian Global South states of India and China are asserting their leadership roles and responsibilities within the broader framework of global climate diplomacy, examining their governance efforts and ability to shape and manage global climate challenges.
Bridging international geopolitics and climate governance from a Global South perspective, the book looks in-depth at the internal dynamics, strategic positioning, and global interactions of China and India's role in climate politics. Chapters analyse climate ties, intra-South rivalries, and cooperation efforts between neighbouring countries, providing region-specific case studies from the Middle East, Central and South Asia. The book also highlights the role of non-state actors in shaping climate governance. By critically examining the extent to which India and China exercise agency and responsibility in the global climate regime, the book attempts to challenge the prevailing assumptions about responsibility, hierarchy, and influence in global climate politics.
The book will be of value to scholars, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of international relations, governance, and climate change studies.
