      We are most grateful to two anonymous readers who helped us strengthen this book and to Isabella Baranyk, who provided exceptionally thoughtful and comprehensive feedback on drafts. We also acknowledge insightful comments and contributions from colleagues, friends, and relatives, including Jisho Warner, Elska Lennox, Rosa Shapiro-Thompson, Ivan Willis Rasmussen, Simon Nicholson, Jesse Ribot, Ken Conca, Craig Simons, and Bo Donners. Chen Qihang and Yuan Qianchun provided helpful research. Marcela Godoy generously shared her artwork. Tian Tian Wedgwood Young assembled the index. We are also grateful to our experienced editors at Polity, Louise Knight and Inès Boxman. Steve Leard designed an interesting cover, Neil de Cort expertly managed the production, and Ian Tuttle performed masterful copy edits. We are also immensely grateful to each other, for seamlessly building on the other’s strengths to create a much better book than either of us could have written on our own.

      A decade or so after the start of the twenty-first century, China’s policy makers appeared poised to assume global leadership on environmental protection. Where just a few years before, Chinese negotiators in global forums had argued vociferously for the primacy of international legal principles that protected developing country interests, China began to moderate its use of these arguments. Instead of focusing on the right to development, technology transfer from developed to developing countries, financing for mitigation and adaptation, absolute sovereignty over natural resources, and common but differentiated responsibilities, China’s leaders began to speak about climate change and other environmental challenges as shared global threats. Where at one time the country was seen as a primary obstacle to achieving consensus on these issues, China seemed to some observers as the last best hope for efforts to save the planet.
