Abstract
Global experimentalist governance has emerged within and across a number of
international regulatory regimes, but its potential contribution to the
global governance of climate change remains largely unexplored. This
article investigates the opportunities and barriers to developing global
experimentalist governance approaches in the international regulation of
climate change technologies, focusing on the recent framework for marine
geoengineering under the London Dumping Protocol. It argues that, in the
face of the limits of international law in dealing with uncertainty,
multilevel distribution of power and regulatory disconnection, global
experimentalist governance is attractive to catalyse adaptability,
iterative learning, participation and cooperation. Such approach can help
rethink the way international law deals with technological development, by
emphasizing its problem-solving function.
