• Uluslararasi iklim müzakerelerinde uzun yillardir bas gösteren uyusmazliklar, uluslararasi iliskiler akademik ve bilimsel arastirmalarinin ilgi odagi olmustur. Bu calismalarda ekseriyetle, isbirligini destekleyici ve bedavaciligi önleyici yeni müzakere ve dengeleme mekanizmalari gelistirerek, uluslararasi güc esitsizliklerini iklim konusunda birlestirmesinin yollari aranmistir. Bu makale, ilk olarak 1997 Kyoto Anlasmasi'ni takiben yapilan iklim müzakerelerinin neden basarisizliga ugradigini ve bu basarisizliklarin 2015 Paris Iklim Anlasmasi ile nasil cözülebildigini neorealist ve neoliberal baglam icerisinde konumlandirmaktadir. Özellikle enerji güvenliginin sistemsel anarsi, özyardim ve göreli cikar tespitlerine, neoliberal kurumsalciligin verdigi kompleks coklu-bagimliiik ve mutlak cikar cevaplari, iklim müzakerelerinin basarisi hakkinda teorik bir cevap vermektedir. Makale, neo-neo tartismasi kadar, iki yeni sistemsel teorik yaklasimi da (Eko-Marksizm ve Yesil Kapitalizm) karsilastirmakta, bu sayede karbon salinimi ve iklim konularinda cereyan eden önemli bir teorik tartismayi, uluslararasi iliskiler literatürü icinde konumlandirmaya calismaktadir.//Continued inability of the international climate negotiations to reach a common resolution has been subject to academic and scientific research focus. These studies have focused on the ways of fostering cooperation and preventing free-riding in climate negotiations, through the development of balancing methods. This article first attempts to explore why climate negotiations since 1997 Kyoto Protocol have failed and how such failures could be overcome in 2015 Paris UN Climate Conference through a neorealist and neoliberal institutionalist context. Especially, neorealist concepts such as systemic anarchy, self-help and relative gains, along with the neoliberal institutionalist response to them through complex interdependence and absolute gains, have been instrumental to crafting a theoretical answer to the success of most recent climate negotiations. The article then adds two new systemic-theoretical approach to the debate, namely Eco-Marxism and Green Capitalism, and aims to contextualize these approaches within international relations theoretical literature.
