To explain countries’ attitudes and behaviors toward international environmental regulation, D. Sprinz and T. Vantorranta provide the interest-based analytical framework with by categorizing countries into four types: pushers, intermediates, draggers and bystanders with two considerations: the ecological vulnerability and the abatement cost toward a specific environmental problem. By this framework, Japan’s performance can be well demonstrated as a dragger before the Kyoto Protocol was adopted. However, although faced with difficulties such as the US withdrawal, high GHGs emission-reduction commitment and strong domestic opposition, Japan chose to become the intermediate between EU and US, seeking US’s participation and EU’s flexibility to make the Protocol come into effect. In order to avoid losing its environmental initiatives and leadership resulted by the collapse of the Protocol, Japan inclined to accomplish the negotiation process without the US commitment. This implies that the interest-based analysis can hardly have its conviction in interpreting Japanese approach toward global warming negotiations. Being a peculiar role among Parties, Japan has been trying to exert its diplomatic leadership and environmental initiatives with intentions that complicatedly combine physical and symbolic national interests.
Abstract
To explain countries’ attitudes and behaviors toward international environmental regulation, D. Sprinz and T. Vantorranta provide the interest-based analytical framework with by categorizing countries into four types: pushers, intermediates, draggers and bystanders with two considerations: the ecological vulnerability and the abatement cost toward a specific environmental problem. By this framework, Japan’s performance can be well demonstrated as a dragger before the Kyoto Protocol was adopted. However, although faced with difficulties such as the US withdrawal, high GHGs emission-reduction commitment and strong domestic opposition, Japan chose to become the intermediate between EU and US, seeking US’s participation and EU’s flexibility to make the Protocol come into effect. In order to avoid losing its environmental initiatives and leadership resulted by the collapse of the Protocol, Japan inclined to accomplish the negotiation process without the US commitment. This implies that the interest-based analysis can hardly have its conviction in interpreting Japanese approach toward global warming negotiations. Being a peculiar role among Parties, Japan has been trying to exert its diplomatic leadership and environmental initiatives with intentions that complicatedly combine physical and symbolic national interests.
