“…The most convincing example given is that of China and the European Union (EU) together initiating a new boom in green energy, particularly solar, and thus creating a momentum from which a more efficient international equilibrium between all states could be reached. Another club is the group of BASIC countries that is gaining more and more power within the negotiations, as well as within the policy field overall, and is thus setting a new standard for the group of developing countries (Never 2012;Lederer 2013a). Similarly, state-oriented scholars argue that single states unilaterally take up a frontrunner position in a climate-related field that is then potentially replicated by a larger number of countries.…”

“…Instrumental power is close to both Weber and Dahl in that it targets the direct relations between A and B, which are shaped by the resources and capacities the actors have. According to Lederer (2012), not only coercion and force matter here, but also successful lobbying, agenda setting and rule setting in the economic realm. Structural power, as has been explained above, concerns the structures and constitutive relations that indirectly define actors' self-understanding, social capacities and interests (Barnett and Duvall 2005).…”

Terms of use: Documents in Toward the Green Economy: Assessing Countries' Green Power AbstractThe green power potential of a country is a central factor in the transformation to a green economy. This paper argues that green power will become a decisive factor for global change. Green power combines sustainability, innovation and power into one concept. By merging insights from political science, economics and innovation research, this paper develops a multidimensional, multilevel concept of green power that takes both resources and processes into account. A first empirical assessment of the current distribution of green power in global environmental governance shows that China and India, in particular, as well as Brazil and Costa Rica are catching up in clean technology and renewable energy. The European Union, Germany and the United States still dominate, but they are not fully maximizing their green power potential. In spite of their discursive power, the green power potential of the least developed countries is relatively small, making the jump toward a green economy unlikely.
