Title Multi-level governance in the protection of the fundamental right to the environment in the European Union: the European Ecological Pact and the Cities Mission project
Year 2022
Published
Abstract The European Union, as a sui generis international entity, seeks to deal with global threats and contribute to their resolution or mitigation. However, given its institutional architecture and the challenging nature of these threats, the Union seeks to create proportionally innovative strategies for the exercise of authority, in order to allow a more efficient and effective response to these challenges, and without jeopardizing the legitimacy of the his performance. In this context, multilevel governance emerges, as a way of promoting policies and norms that are more capable of responding to the challenges of this century - as is the case of climate change. Thus, the present article intends to test the less studied articulation of governance between the supra- state and subnational levels in the domain of a transnational public good of special urgency, which is that of environmental protection. To this end, the following research question arises: how does the European Union apply a multilevel governance strategy, articulating with state and subnational levels, to act within the scope of action to protect against climate change? The action of the European Union, namely within the scope of the Cities Mission Project, constitutes the selected case study, to which normative analysis and literature review are added, in an inductive approach that intends to appreciate the operationalization of multilevel governance by this supranational institution.
