“…The term transnational access has been in use for many decades [Sommeren and Tallberg, 2016] and an overview of the historical evolution of this term is described in Jönsson [2010]. Transnational access occurs in a broad range of contexts and actors, including governmental organizations (e.g., Jönsson and Tallberg, 2010), law [e.g., Krämer, 2012] and justice [e.g., Whytock, 2020], as well as scientific domains [e.g., Journeau et al, 2003;Fardis and Biskinis, 2015;Simell et al, 2019]. TNA to scientific Research Infrastructures (RIs) has gained significant traction through the European Commission Framework and H2020 programs [European Commission, 2018].…”

Transnational access (TNA) allows cross-border, short-term and frequently free-of-charge access to world-class research facilities, to foster collaborations and exchanges of experience. Specifically, TNA aims to encourage open science and innovation and to increase the efficient and effective use of scientific infrastructure. Within EPOS, the European Plate Observing System, the Volcano Observatories and Multi-scale Laboratories communities have offered TNA to their high-quality research facilities through national and European funding. This experience has allowed the definition, design, and testing of procedures and activities needed to provide transnational access inn the EPOS context. In this paper, the EPOS community describes the main objectives for the provision of transnational access in the EPOS framework, based on previous experiences. It includes practical procedures for managing transnational access from a legal, governance, and financial perspective, and proposes logistical and technical solutions to effectively execute transnational access activities. In addition, it provides an outlook on the inclusion of new thematic communities within the TNA framework, and addresses the challenges of providing market-driven access to industry.

Non‐State Actors and Diplomacy

“Club diplomacy,” in which diplomats interact primarily with other members of the profession and government officials, is giving way to “network diplomacy,” in which diplomats need to engage with an expanded set of non‐state actors. These, in turn, engage in diplomatic activity vis‐à‐vis each other, governments, and international organizations. Transnational actors, operating across state boundaries while not being controlled by state governments, include both non‐profit actors, such as non‐governmental organizations (NGOs), and profit‐oriented actors, such as transnational firms. Other non‐state actors are located at a level below the state (subnational) or above the state (supranational). The term “paradiplomacy” is sometimes used to refer to the diplomatic activity of subnational actors, such as cities and federated entities. The European Union is thus far the only example of a supranational actor enjoying full diplomatic recognition.

Country‐Specific Participation Patterns in Transnational Governance Initiatives on Sustainability: Preliminary Insights and Research Agenda

Transnational public–private governance initiatives (TGIs) have become key elements in global governance, especially in the governance of sustainability. Pertinent research has concentrated on why TGIs have emerged as well as on their impacts on political outcomes and questions related to their legitimacy. This instructive literature has predominantly focused on TGIs as entities in their own right. This explorative study contributes to the literature by advocating a complementary analytical perspective that pays attention to domestic‐level patterns of participation in TGIs and national factors that determine which types of organizations (public, business, or civil society) participate in TGIs. It is shown for six Latin American countries (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru) that there exists cross‐country variation in the composition patterns in 29 TGIs on sustainability, suggesting that national conditions matter for how organizations participate in them. By improving the knowledge of the national conditions, a more complete analysis of participation and the effectiveness of TGIs can be provided in global sustainability governance. In this spirit, in a last step, an agenda is developed for guiding future research on this topic.
