The authors start from the recognition that the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is no longer the sole site of global climate change governance. Thus, the types of linkage across what we call the global climate governance landscape, including as a central node the UNFCCC, are important for thinking through how improved global responses to climate change may be pursued. The authors identify two specific types of linkage: division-of-labor linkages and catalytic linkages. They are illustrated with examples, and questions are raised that may be useful to pursue in future research.
