Description:
As the world is increasingly governed by a mesh of supranational institutions, European organizations and businesses should better understand how this mesh works. How does the International Civil Aviation Organization (in charge of designing a new emission trading scheme for the airline industry) make decisions? Or how does the International Monetary Fund, partly in charge of the fiscal restructuring in Ukraine and Greece, function? There is almost no sector untouched by international governance schemes; thus European businesses must scan them continually with their institutional radars. Shipping companies must follow closely the discussions and standard-setting dialogues of the International Maritime Organization, as energy and energy-intensive corporations should monitor the Conferences of Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Thus, the purpose of this chapter is to inform European businesses and other organizations about the functioning of the international institutional environment
