      abstract = {With this paper we present an analysis of sixty  transnational governance initiatives and assess the  implications for our understanding of the roles of public  and private actors, the legitimacy of governance 'beyond'  the state, and the North–South dimensions of governing  climate change. In the fi rst part of the paper we examine  the notion of transnational governance and its  applicability in the climate change arena, refl ecting on  the history and emergence of transnational governance  initiatives in this issue area and key areas of debate. In  the second part of the paper we present the fi ndings from  the database and its analysis. Focusing on three core  issues, the roles of public and private actors in governing  transnationally, the functions that such initiatives  perform, and the ways in which accountability for governing  global environmental issues might be achieved, we suggest  that signifi cant distinctions are emerging in the universe  of transnational climate governance which may have  considerable implications for the governing of global  environmental issues. In conclusion, we refl ect on these  fi ndings and the subsequent consequences for the  governance of climate change.},
