Summary: | In the world of transnational environmental governance, the Arctic Council is a particular regional body. It lacks a background in a regional Convention or Treaty, but it is uniquely inclusive in giving indigenous people a formal position in the deliberations. The Arctic Council can also be seen to represent polycentric environmental governance, which is based on the idea that actions addressing common issues are not determined in a top-down fashion, but instead emerge bottom-up from different centres that present and develop their approaches partly independently. A key argument is that governance is partially dispersed in the sense that actions are not fully harmonised and that policy actors can take different but linked actions at different levels. |
