Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: With discussions on a future international legal framework on climate change having started in formal settings, it is important to understand the effectiveness of elements of proposed future architectures for climate change governance. This article focuses on an important potential element of a post-2012 climate regime, namely market-based, flexibility mechanisms. Many post-2012 proposals envisage a significant role for flexibility mechanisms, either through a continuation and, possibly, reform of the Kyoto Protocol mechanisms or through alternatives. However, the current functioning of flexibility mechanisms has been criticized on a number of accounts. In particular, there have been claims that these mechanisms do not sufficiently benefit, or may even harm developing countries. Addressing these concerns will be a key challenge in order to broaden participation in a post-2012 climate regime. The article outlines the main concerns that have been raised with respect to the flexibility mechanisms most relevant to developing countries: international emissions trading and the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). It then presents and discusses a number of suggestions on how to address these concerns in a post-2012 climate agreement, and identifies key challenges and trade-offs in doing so.
