The approach adopted in the Paris Agreement<br \/>\nis often described as one acknowledging the primacy of domestic politics (Falkner 2016). This puts a<br \/>\nspecial focus on the question of how characteristics of domestic political institutions shape the<br \/>\nambition and credibility of NDC pledges. Of major interest in this context is the effect of democracy,<br \/>\nwhich is the topic of this Master thesis. The idea is to empirically investigate this question using two<br \/>\nsources of data: (1) a unique dataset of views by climate policy experts (Victor et al. 2022) and (2)<br \/>\nratings on a range of climate policy performance indicators published by \u201cClimate Action Tracker\u201d<br \/>\n(Boehm et al. 2022) and \u201cGermanwatch\u201d (Burck et al. 2022). To answer the research question using<br \/>\nthese data sets, it will be necessary to first add additional data from other sources (e.g., democracy<br \/>\nindices) and then perform descriptive and econometric analyses. The basis for the empirical analysis<br \/>\nshould be a careful literature analysis that reviews both theoretical and empirical literature on the<br \/>\ninterplay between democracy and how a country performs with respect to environmental and climate<br \/>\npolicy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>i need firt literature review for this thesis topic :&nbsp; &nbsp; The Paris Climate Agreement of 2015 allows countries to set their own emissions reduction targets in the form of \u201cNationally Determined Contributions\u201d (NDCs) and is formally non-punitive, meaning that countries do not face any sanctions for non-compliance.
