英文摘要:
This paper proposes an analytical framework to examine the application of performance management by city governments in the context of their policy response to climate change. Case studies of Copenhagen, Stockholm and Tokyo city governments highlight their performance-based climate policies. The findings have both theoretical and practical implications. The conclusions extend current research on issues associated with adopting performance management to climate change responses at the municipal level. The paper also provides guidance for city governments as they consider governance arrangements when responding to climate change.
