Abstract: This article contributes to the literature on transnational environmental governance (TEG). Polycentricity is a popular conceptual approach in TEG, but coordination in polycentric systems remains largely unexplored. We put forward a conceptual model of quality standards as a productive links between different orders of governance in polycentric systems.

In other words, the control of maritime pollution in shipping consists of different actors with multiple centres for decision-making.…”
