International Public Policy on Adaptation to Climate Change. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Nov 2009, Pages: 60
Adaptation to climate change is considered crucial for developing countries in major international policy literature including that of the UNFCCC. The study is intended to answer the question of how and in what extent international public policy accommodates or fails to accommodate the real concerns of developing countries in facilitating adaptation process. The study confirms that there are still major drawbacks in the global policy level to address the issue of adaptation successfully while the country studies i.e. NAPAs and National Communications, supported by UNFCCC financially and technically, were robust. The study scrutinized the issues of country needs vis-à-vis global responses while presenting detailed analysis of five most vulnerable developing countries in the world. The comparative plus compiling analysis of needs and real appropriations that flows into the realm of international public policy should help shed some light on the issues of global climate change politics and its functioning in delivering adaptation in the developing countries and should be especially useful to students and researchers interested in global politics, climate change and public policy.
