Why do countries liberalize capital controls? The literature identifies a range of possible reasons. Yet, despite considerable advances, the impact of international nongovernmental organizations has yet to be considered. In fact, surprisingly, systematic analysis of the role of international non-governmental organizations in the diffusion of economic openness, financial or otherwise, has not been pursued previously. We offer the first such analysis by advancing the idea of 'climatic mimesis,' which refers to the cultural climate for policymaking that results from country ties to international non-governmental organizations.

Os anos pós-Guerra Fria possibilitam uma renovação do debate latino-americano sobre as tensões entre meio ambiente, ética e política internacional. Defensores da idéia de que as relações internacionais emergem exclusivamente da interação entre entidades políticas soberanas e independentes contrapõem-se aos que sustentam a centralidade na agenda ecopolítica de muitos outros atores para além do Estado. Ou seja, os princípios da soberania incondicionada e da não-ingerência ordenadores tradicionais do sentido das "relações internacionais" são questionados pela crescente transnacionalização das reivindicações, por redes e movimentos ambientalistas, de condutas éticas e responsáveis no campo ambiental. É com base nesses pressupostos que o presente artigo se estrutura em duas partes: (1) uma discussão sobre o processo de internacionalização da problemática ambiental e das tensões contemporâneas entre meio ambiente, ética e política internacional na América Latina; (2) uma análise dos questionamentos trazidos pelo campo do ambientalismo latino-americano operando no seio da contestação transnacional do Fórum Social Mundial.
