Abstract

ABSTRACT The paper analyzes how the European Bank of Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the Eurasian Development Bank (EDB) approach sustainable development in their legal documents and social media. Unlike democracies, autocracies are driven by concerns of regime survival, but they often seek legitimacy through expressed commitments to global norms. We find that while the EBRD has a clear and detailed environmental agenda, this is not so for the EDB, which appears unconcerned about legitimizing itself on this issue. The paper advances our understanding of the likely role of these organizations in sustainable development, identifying areas for further research on global environmental challenges.

区域国际组织的可持续发展议程：欧洲复兴开发银行和欧亚开发银行

摘要本文分析了欧洲复兴开发银行（EBRD）和欧亚开发银行（EDB）在其法律文件和社交媒体中如何处理可持续发展问题。与民主国家不同，独裁国家是由对政权生存的担忧驱动的，但它们往往通过对全球规范的明确承诺来寻求合法性。我们发现，尽管欧洲复兴开发银行有一个明确而详细的环境议程，但教育局却并非如此，它似乎不关心在这个问题上使自己合法化。这篇论文加深了我们对这些组织在可持续发展中可能发挥的作用的理解，确定了对全球环境挑战进行进一步研究的领域。
