International cooperation on energy had momentum in 2012. So far fragmented in multiple initiatives and agencies, the global dialogue about energy can now undergo some rationalization. Such innovation takes move from Russia action, as one of the key energy exporters, in multilateral venues. Last summer Moscow either entered the WTO, either got the pro-tempore Presidency of the G8/G20. Moreover, Russia is at the OECD doorstep for joining it as a full-fledged member, with a view to entering the OECD affiliate, the Paris-based International Energy Agency (IEA). All these hubs of international cooperation are the core of global economic governance and hugely involved in energy regulation. For their strict interrelation, the role that Moscow can simultaneously play at the junction of such institutions will result essential to favour the centrality of the IEA. With beneficial effects over international energy regulation and, in the end, on global governance as well. … From Russia with … law?

Subject. The article analyzes development factors of some food markets that have relatively successfully survived the economic crisis during the protracted pandemic. Objectives. We aim at analyzing the development of the world market of electric road vehicles in the context of the pandemic and the economic crisis. Methods. The study applies methods of content analysis, descriptive statistics, and comparative analysis. The information base of the study was analytical reviews and databases of the International Energy Agency, official websites of automakers, analytical materials of the International Climate Alliance, and the International Carbon Neutrality Coalition. Results. We unveil new trends in the development of the electric vehicle market, in particular, the development of urban micromobility as an alternative to personal and public transport. The study identifies the main growth factors of the global market of electric vehicles and other electric road vehicles. The findings can be used in designing the State programs to support innovative transport technologies, as well as programs to improve the quality of urban environment. Conclusions. The global electric car market has shown a significant growth in 2020. The main factors of growth were the long-term climate policies of European countries, within the framework of gradual tightening of requirements and standards for vehicle emissions, State programs to mitigate the consequences of the economic crisis, stimulating the development of innovative technologies, and changes in consumer behavior.

Abstract In policy domains characterised by complexity, international organizations (IOs) with overlapping mandates and governance functions regularly interact in ways that have important implications for global governance. Yet the dynamics of IO interactions remain understudied. This article breaks new ground by building on the theoretical insights of organizational ecology to examine IO competition, cooperation, and adaptation in the domain of energy. Drawing on original empirical data, I consider three related hypotheses: (1) competition between IOs in the same population is likely to centre on material resources; (2) IOs are more likely to cooperate when they have a shared governance goal; and (3) individual IOs can adapt by changing their goals and boundaries. In considering these hypotheses, this article highlights the limits of the organizational ecology approach and the need to broaden it to account for the possibility that IOs do cooperate, and that individual IOs, such as the International Energy Agency, have the capacity to adapt to changes in their environment.

The objetive of this work is to analyze the variation of CO2 emissions and GDP per capita throughout the years and identify the possible interaction between them. For this purpose, data from the International Energy Agency was collected on two countries, Brazil and the one with the highest GDP worldwide, the United States. Thus, the results showed that CO2 emissions have been following the country’s economic growth for many years. However, these two indicators have started to decouple in the US in 2007 while in Brazil the same happened in 2011. Furthermore, projections for CO2 emissions are made until 2040, considering 6 probable scenarios. These projections showed that even if the oil price decreases, the emissions will not be significantly affected as long as the economic growth does not decelerate.
