日本語
パキスタンは気候変動の影響を強く受ける一方、中央政府主導の気候政策が効果を発揮していない。本研究は多中心ガバナンス理論に基づき、18修正後の地方分権化の進展と限界を分析。経済的制約、政府間調整不足、国際気候資金への依存が課題とし、地域主体の参加と地域固有の解決策を提唱する。
English
Pakistan, highly vulnerable to climate change, struggles with centralized climate governance. This study applies polycentric governance theory to analyze decentralization after the 18th amendment, finding limited impact due to economic constraints, weak intergovernmental coordination, and dependence on international climate finance. It recommends strengthening subnational capacity and using carbon sinks.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本ではSSBJ開示や地域脱炭素の文脈で、国と地方の役割分担が議論されている。本論文の多中心ガバナンスの知見は、日本の自治体主導の脱炭素施策や地域間連携の設計に示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
Globally, this paper contributes to climate governance scholarship by examining polycentric approaches in a developing country context, offering lessons for international climate finance and subnational climate action, relevant to ISSB and other disclosure frameworks that emphasize jurisdictional approaches.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Climate change is a transnational problem, that requires localized collective actions. Compared to China and the US which contributes 27% and 11% to global carbon emissions, respectively, Pakistan contributes less than 1% but is among the top ten most vulnerable countries to climate catastrophes. These threats are further escalated by the country’s highly centralized governance structure. These study focuses on the decentralization of climate policies in Pakistan, followed by a polycentric governance system, and highlights its importance in responding to the dynamic nature of climate change in the country. Grounded in Polycentric Governance Theory, a qualitative, deductive research design way employed, relying on primary and secondary data sources. The study reveals that after the 18th amendment in Pakistan, the responsibility related to climate policies has increased on the subnational government; however, its effect remains limited due to constant economic constraints, weak coordination among different governmental bodies, and dependency on international climate finance. This demonstrates that polycentric governance offers a commendable framework for making strong climate responses by involving local actors and providing region-specific solutions. This study concluded policymakers might prioritize intergovernmental coordination, expand subnational budget capacity and use carbon sinking mechanisms as a major tool for reducing climate change impacts.
