      description => protected'In a complex and multilevel regime, countries’ national and international 
         strategies to address climate change may considerably differ. Adopting an ac
         tor-centered approach, the aim of this article is to outline and understand 
         the potential difference between a nation’s domestic climate policy and it
         s position in the international climate regime. We adopt social network anal
         ysis focusing on actors’ identification, their relational profiles, intere
         sts, and resources. Through survey data and content analysis, we focus on th
         ose actors’ positions within Swiss national and foreign climate policy. Re
         sults show that it is crucial to identify actors that participate in both th
         e national and foreign policymaking. But participation on two levels seems t
         o be a necessary but not sufficient condition. Actors should play a central 
         role in both processes, and defend similar policy interests on the two level
         s, in order for them to be able to coordinate actions and produce coherent o
         utputs in overlapping subsystems.' (1021 chars)

      description => protected'Climate change mitigation policy is driven by scientific knowledge and invol
         ves actors from the international, national and local decision-making levels
         . This multi-level and cross-sectoral context requires collaborative managem
         ent when designing mitigation solutions over time and space. But collaborati
         on in general policymaking settings, and particularly in the complex domain 
         of climate mitigation, is not an easy task. This paper addresses the questio
         n of what drives collaboration among collective actors involved in climate m
         itigation policy. We wish to investigate whether common beliefs or power str
         uctures influence collaboration among actors. We adopt a longitudinal approa
         ch to grasp differences between the early and more advanced stages of mitiga
         tion policy design. We use survey data to investigate actors’ collaboratio
         n, beliefs and power, and apply a Stochastic Actor-oriented Model for networ
         k dynamics to three subsequent networks in Swiss climate policy between 1995
          and 2012. Results show that common beliefs among actors, as well as formal 
         power structures, have a higher impact on collaboration relations than perce
         ived power structures. Furthermore, those effects hold true for decision-mak
         ing about initial mitigation strategies, but less so for the implementation 
         of those measures.' (1310 chars)

      description => protected'The advocacy coalition framework (ACF) pays special attention to "so-called"
          policy brokers when explaining policy change. However, this prominent polic
         y approach neither clearly defines who the policy brokers are nor identifies
          under which institutional rules they have an influence on policy processes 
         and outputs. This article thus formulates two theoretical hypotheses that co
         mplement the ACF and then proceeds to undertake the first empirical testing 
         of these hypotheses within the Swiss climate policy (1990-2008). The empiric
         al results show that, in the case under investigation, the <I>strategic inte
         rest-based behavior</I> of two policy brokers (i.e., one public administrati
         on and one political party), as well as two <I>institutionalized veto points

         ctors explaining policy brokers' influence on policy process and change.' (908 chars)
