description This paper develops an analytical framework for understanding what particular climate regime will lead to a better transformation of the international society and why. It argues that a positive transformation of the international order takes place when it creates conditions for strategic restraint of the use of force, maximizes incentives for equitable sharing of the economic burden and benefits of the system, and strengthens the moral and legal basis for raising legitimate claims to status recognition. Drawing on the state of play in climate change negotiations, the paper concludes that an enhanced version of the Copenhagen Accord offers the most encouraging prospects for the security, economic stability and moral constitution of the international society.
