Abstract
To explore the conditions for success and failure in transnational urban partnership projects the study derives four explanatory variables from current theoretical literature. The first explanatory variable, the quality of the knowledge exchange strategy, is derived from policy transfer literature. To position transnational urban cooperation within the wider global climate governance debate, this study engages with emerging transnational governance literature, in particular Andonova, Betsill and Bulkeley’s (2009) typology of transnational climate change governance networks.
