Introduction
This chapter argues for the analysis of global and transnational environmental governance as administration. This approach sheds light on some important but neglected themes in international environmental law scholarship. The chapter begins by outlining several basic administrative concepts that call for analysis under such an approach (section 2), then sets forth an analytical framework of five structures of administration in global governance (sections 3–6). The five structures include the following (these are archetypes—practice often combines them or blurs the divisions).1 Distributed administration is performed largely by organs of national governments, acting pursuant to international agreements or other transnational regimes. International administration is performed by a formal intergovernmental body with a defined organization and competence, usually established by treaty. Inter-governmental network administration is performed by networks of national government officials that operate with less formal definition. Hybrid administration is performed by a joint institution, or a less formal coordination, involving public and private actors in a transnational context. It will be considered together with private administration, conducted by actors that are not governmental or intergovernmental.
