Abstract

U.S. foreign climate policy has experienced extremely dramatic change from 2016 to 2021. The Democratic presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden uphold totally different policies from the Republican President Donald Trump. This article puts emphasis on the U.S. domestic partisanship polarization within two-party political system in order to effectively explain its climate policy change. Within the U.S. regime, the two-party system and the electoral system gradually bring about partisanship polarization. There is a growing tendency of competition based on different partisan beliefs and political stances affected by the demographic composition, interest groups, and public opinion in election. This article considers how the above three factors lead to partisanship polarization which destabilizes the U.S. foreign climate policy.
