    Abstract

    Proposals for policy change rarely come from "the people". Most reform proposals are promoted by a variety of actors (affected people or firms, experts, interest groups, bureaucrats, politicians) and are more likely to be discussed by a small policy community rather than by the public at large. Few such proposals make it onto political agendas or government policy. Many face a stony path before being legitimated by parliamentary decisions, often only after surviving one-sided lobbying or corrupt party financing. While many proposals for climate change mitigation receive insufficient promotion to succeed, emission trading policy has gained support from powerful economic players in both national and international arenas
