Being There: International Negotiations as Study Sites in Global Environmental Politics

Kate O’Neill and Peter M. Haas

Global Environmental Politics, 2019, vol. 19, issue 2, 4-13

Abstract: This forum traces the emergence of international negotiations as study sites in the field of global environmental politics, from its early days until the present. It sets the scene for the research articles in this special section, outlining why their contributions are timely, and takes advantage of advances in methods and conceptual analysis. The articles in this special section suggest the value of direct observation and ethnography in driving conceptual innovation and understanding how power and influence are exercised in such settings (including by the traditionally powerless). In doing so, they encourage debate over and offer new insights into processes the GEP field has been studying for close to fifty years.
