Abstract While the science and economics of climate change have been examined extensively, this has not been so with institutions, governance and service activity which are essential response mechanisms. This Symposium seeks to address this situation in theory and practice. Here, three broad institutional perspectives are provided, comprising issues and challenges for institutions within and across state‐market‐civil society boundaries. This material leads into subsequent discussions of significant developments in Brazil, China, India, Vietnam, Australia and the European Union. The result is an array of insights and lessons on which further research and analyses could valuably build. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
