3. Call for Submissions: After COP26 – Appraising the Transnational Climate Regime. After the much anticipated COP26, Transnational Legal Theory seeks submission of commentaries, opinion pieces and original articles that address the development of the climate regime at the conference in the context of the proliferation of transnational activity that has only increased in self employed database ambition, scope and volume since COP21 in 2015.
