Federal Constitutions and Global Governance: The Case of Climate Change

  • Rating12345

The article “Federal Constitutions and Global Governance: The Case of Climate Change” has recently been accepted for publication in Volume 87 of the Indiana Law Journal (forthcoming 2012).

This article expands recent research published in the Colorado Law Review and applies similar analysis to other federal systems of government (the final version of the previous, now complete Colorado Law Review article, “Climate Change, Forests and Federalism: Seeing the Treaty for the Trees,” can be downloaded here: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1580219). The article is ultimately aimed at exploring the legal implications of federal constitutional law and structure on global resource governance. The article explores these implications through the lens of forest management law in federal systems of government. I would appreciate any feedback you may have on this draft before it goes to print. A working draft of the article can be downloaded here:
