The World Summit for Sustainable Development in Johannesburg marked the end of global environmental summitry. How do we assess this recent summit “for implementation, partnership and accountability”? In the aftermath of this deliberative event, what are the ideological, discursive and institutional shifts in environmentalism and sustainability? The aim of the panel is to map the future directions of sustainable development in international environmental politics. Another aim is to trace significant changes in the environment-development nexus between the Rio and the Johannesburg conferences. Participants are encouraged to expand on themes such the global institutional framework for environment and sustainability, the ascendancy of free-tradism of sustainability, the prospect for civil society and civic environmentalism, the rise of green corporatism and the shift from multilateralism to partnership. This panel invites papers examining the prospects for global environmental governance from various theoretical, empirical, normative and methodological vantage points.
