Abstract

The papers collated in this panel are dealing with phenomena of bureaucratic and institutional inertia on the one hand, and policy change on the other. Bureaucracy itself as a factor in policy change is an understudied area within the field of environmental politics, and it is discussed from various perspective by papers in the panel. Another factor influencing the possibility of change, as explored by one paper in the panel, may be the relationship between corruption and the level of women's representation. And, as will also be discussed, the relationship between electoral clientelism and extreme weather phenomena is another factor that has not been accounted for to date.
