Bargaining Among Nations

Culture, History, and Perceptions in Regime Formation

Board of Studies in Politics, University of California, Santa Cruz

The goal of this article is to see how the underlying cultural, historical, or perceptual elements that form the basis for the establishment of international agreements and organizations affect bargaining between nations over issues of the global commons. The article has four parts. In the first two, the author summarizes competing ideas about the provisions of collective goods and theories of regime formation (related aspects of the same phenomenon). In the third section, the author suggests ways in which cultural, historical, and perceptual differences might be worked into notions about regime formation. Finally, in the fourth, the author addresses the implications of these ideas for managing the planetary atmosphere.
