Beskrivning

This incisive book explores how cities are increasingly influential actors in international law-making and implementation, particularly in relation to human rights and climate change. Agnieszka Szpak analyzes global inter-city agreements, international relations strategies and international normative activities of selected cities.Examining new legal terminology to accommodate the position of cities and outlining trends in international law and relations, Szpak focusses on city networks and their use of international vocabulary. She highlights case studies from across Africa, Europe and the United States, illustrating how human rights are safeguarded across varying legal jurisdictions. The book discusses the right to adequate housing and healthcare, identifying ways that these can be implemented. Chapters provide insight into how legal standards for climate change can be administered on a city-by-city scale, addressing the Chicago Climate Charter and C40’s Global Green New Deal as key examples of how cities can engage with climate change mitigation and adaptation.Global City Diplomacy and International Law is a crucial resource for students and academics in international relations, international law, political science, and urban studies. Its discerning insights will also greatly benefit city authorities dealing with international cooperation and external experts cooperating with cities.
