- More about Remaking Political Institutions: Climate Change and Beyond
Institutions are failing in many areas of contemporary politics, particularly climate change. This Element develops an original analytical foundation for studying institutional remaking and its political dynamics, explaining how it can be observed and providing a typology of five areas of institutional production involved in institutional remaking. It opens up a new research agenda on the politics of responding to institutional breakdown and brings sustainability scholarship into closer dialogue with scholarship on processes of institutional change and development.

Institutions are failing in many areas of contemporary politics, not least of which concerns climate change. However, remedying such problems is not straightforward. Pursuing institutional improvement is an intensely political process, playing out over extended timeframes, and intricately tied to existing setups. Such activities are open-ended, and outcomes are often provisional and indeterminate. The question of institutional improvement, therefore, centers on understanding how institutions are (re)made within complex settings. This Element develops an original analytical foundation for studying institutional remaking and its political dynamics. It explains how institutional remaking can be observed and provides a typology comprising five areas of institutional production involved in institutional remaking (Novelty, Uptake, Dismantling, Stability, Interplay). This opens up a new research agenda on the politics of responding to institutional breakdown, and brings sustainability scholarship into closer dialogue with scholarship on processes of institutional change and development.
Additionally, this Element offers a critical reflection on the limitations and challenges of existing approaches to institutional improvement, highlighting the need for more nuanced and context-specific understandings of institutional change. It emphasizes the importance of engaging with diverse stakeholders and promoting democratic and inclusive processes of institutional remaking. By doing so, we can work towards creating more sustainable and equitable societies.
