“…In this context of a change of global governance between 2005 and 2009, the CBDR-RC is reinterpreted at the international level to abandon interpretations that only associate this concept with the idea of historical responsibilities leading to a clear separation between them Annex I and non Annex I countries. This international process triggered local processes of reinterpretation of this norm insofar as states could legitimately support traditional interpretations in the context of the new configuration of the climate regime (Albuquerque, 2019).…”

“…With the Bali Action Plan, countries recognized that climate change responsibilities are dynamic in the long term. This plan also established a second negotiation route, separated from the Kyoto Protocol, where a working group of developed countries (including the United States) will negotiate future quantified emission reduction commitments (Lessels, 2013;Albuquerque, 2019).…”

“…Thus, with the conformation of BASIC, these countries were able to slow down, or at least reduce, the speed of transformations within the structure of global climate governance. Through this joint action, BASIC members were able to uphold the CBDR-RC, even in the transformation of the commitments from a top-down model to a bottom-up approach (Albuquerque, 2019).…”

“…Por último, cabe destacar que en los últimos años se ha avanzado en una agenda de investigación de estudios de la política climática brasileña que han sido de gran relevancia para el encuadre y el análisis del caso. Entre estos antecedentes deben ser destacados los trabajos de Albuquerque (2018Albuquerque ( , 2019, Bratman (2015), Johnson ( 2001), Franchini & Viola (2019), Friberg (2009, Viola (2010), Viola & Franchini (2011, 2014), Viola, Franchini, & Lemos Ribeiro (2012, Viola & Basso (2015), Vieira (2012), Vieira & Cader (2013), Lessels (2013), Torres, Besserman, Vianna, & Currey (2014), entre otros.…”

A partir de la institucionalización del desarrollo sustentable en el contexto de la gobernanza global ambiental, los instrumentos económicos pasan a ganar legitimidad y percibirse como los mecanismos más eficientes para alcanzar la compatibilidad entre la promoción del desarrollo económico y la protección ambiental. En relación con la gobernanza global del cambio climático, este consenso se consolida con la firma del Protocolo de Kioto y los mecanismos de flexibilización diseñados para facilitar el cumplimiento de las metas previstas en el acuerdo. En este artículo se describe el proceso de localización de los mecanismos de flexibilización en el discurso público brasilero sobre cambio climático de 2005 a 2015 desde una perspectiva constructivista de las Relaciones Internacionales. El trabajo presenta tres aportes de relevancia en el marco de la literatura de internalización de normas internacionales ambientales y climáticas, a saber: el proceso de localización de los mecanismos de flexibilización en Brasil no ha sido lineal, el contexto de hegemonía discursiva del ambientalismo liberal fue un factor clave en la internalización de los mecanismos de flexibilización, y la sociedad civil así como otros actores subnacionales y no estatales son actores de una gran relevancia en la internalización e implementación de estas normas.

“…As for the EU's considerations on CBDR-RC, it has recurrently complied with Kyoto's binding emission reduction targets. The EU has pressured China, India, Brazil and others to enhance efforts, seeing the division in annex-I and non-annex-I countries detrimental to itself (Albuquerque 2019). Prior to the COP-21, European negotiators considered the NDCs as a possible way to operationalize CBDR-RC and reflect the current state of things.…”

The election of Donald Trump brought disarray to the climate change regime. The changes in what was up to then a promoter of the liberal international order (LIO) exacerbated existing tensions while creating new ones. This paper investigates how that challenge impacted the behaviours of Brazil, China and the European Union (EU) by comparatively analysing their dissimilar positions with respect to three indicators before and after Trump’s coming into power. These indicators are individual pledges and climate-related policies; approaches to climate finance; and the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities (CBDR-RC). The analysis first shows how the US started eroding the broader LIO and the climate change regime to then delve into the behaviours of the three respective key players concerning climate talks. I sustain that the EU, despite its inner divisions, is already counteracting Washington, whereas China is combining a pro-status quo position based on a rhetorical condemnation of the United States. Brazil, in turn, had a transition towards a climate-sceptic government, shifting from being a cooperative actor to abdicating hosting the COP25.
