Dear colleagues,

We're very pleased to announce a new publication: "The Architecture of Global 
Carbon Pricing Governance: Institutions, Functions and Policy 
Pathways<https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1758-5899.70078>". The 
work was led by Dr. Daniel Muth and was co-authored by myself and Prof. Philipp 
Pattberg at the Institute for Environmental Studies (IVM) of Vrije Universiteit 
Amsterdam. The research was made possible through the project EU Navigating 
Multilateral Cooperation (NAVIGATOR), funded by the European Union's Horizon 
Europe programme.

Abstract:

Carbon pricing mechanisms have proliferated across the world and have become a 
cornerstone of global climate action. This study maps and analyzes existing 
global carbon pricing governance institutions and initiatives. It creates a 
unique dataset encompassing 55 institutions, governance initiatives, and 16 
specific programs aimed at encouraging broader adoption and stronger 
integration of carbon pricing in global climate action. The analysis focuses on 
the following variables: governance functions, location of headquarters, 
geographic scope, membership composition, thematic focus, and the initiatives' 
relationships with the World Bank, United Nations, and the European Union. The 
analysis makes two significant contributions. First, it catalogs all major 
transnational carbon pricing governance initiatives, considerably expanding the 
scholarly understanding of how they operate and integrate into international 
climate policy. For example, the analysis shows that global carbon pricing 
governance is dominated by initiatives promoting voluntary carbon markets, with 
significant institutional overlap in governance functions and a high level of 
hybridization in terms of membership. The global diffusion of carbon pricing 
mechanisms further highlights the increasingly polycentric nature of global 
climate governance, leaving space for bottom-up, voluntary, and hybrid 
mechanisms. Second, a set of recommendations contributes to policymakers' 
strategic objective of promoting carbon pricing mechanisms.

For those of you attending EISA or ECPR, enjoy!

All the best,
Mathieu
