This book explains why emerging economies have come to dominate global environmental politics and examines the implications for international cooperation. Johannes Urpelainen argues that although they continue to prioritize economic growth, innovative bargaining and institutional design offer a way forward.

Reviews
Joshua Busby, University of Texas at Austin:
Urpelainen provides a masterful primer for the challenges of the new global environmental governance. As more developing countries have gotten wealthier, they have increased capacity to destroy the environment, but they have weaker environmental preferences and less state capacity to address environmental problems than advanced industrialized countries. These developments complicate how global challenges like climate change can be addressed.
