Özet
The main aim of this paper is to discuss the potential role of ensuring compliance to struggle against the challenges of global warming. For this purpose, a detailed examination on the ways of ensuring compliance is made under two dimensions: traditional and new means of dealing with compliance problems under multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs). In this respect, in the paper, firstly the traditional means and their limitations in ensuring compliance are studied on. In the second part, it is focused on the basic features of the new means-Compliance Mechanisms (CMs)-making them more preferable to invoke in the eyes of the MEAs' parties. Third, their three main components, namely,-gathering information, procedures/institutional structure and responses-are examined on the basis of their potential weaknesses undermining the efforts to ensure compliance giving examples from CMs under Montreal Protocol and under Kyoto Protocol. Finally, based on the findings, it is argued that, although the traditional means have important weaknesses in ensuring compliance of parties with their commitments under MEAs, these new means have also some weaknesses and so they require improvement for better compliance to cope with the problems of global warming more efficiently.
