Overview: The concept of global governance denotes a fundamental change in the steering mechanisms employed by governments and international organisations as well as in the relation between public and private interests in the provision of global public goods. Next to public-private partnerships and public policy networks, private governance institutions, involving civil society organisations and business actors, enter the centre stage of global governance research within the wider context of International Relations theory. This paper develops a conceptual framework to understand the emergence and impact of private transnational governance institutions in global environmental politics.
