Description
The foundations of world reordering in the 21st century require the reconfiguration of regionalism. Formal and state-centric regionalism today more than ever faces other forms of relation. Informal regional schemes aim for the provision of public goods through transnational governance, articulating multilateral interests of various units and political subjects. The provision of public goods through transregional channels also reconfigures the concept of the "public" to broaden it to a multiplicity of agents and topics. The goal of this paper is to analyze how transregional governance reconfigures the provision of public environmental goods through three interaction processes in the Americas: confrontation, complementarity, and substitution.
