Abstract
"This contribution analyzes the policymaking process of the carbon tax in Argentina based
on the multiple streams approach (MSA). The study shows how policy entrepreneurs took
advantage of a general tax reform bill to promote the idea of a carbon tax. Mainly driven
by international emulation and reputational gains concerns, the carbon tax proposal
successfully advanced through the government´s internal drafting process of the Tax
Reform Bill, however, it faced strong opposition during the legislative decision-making
process, which resulted in the adoption of a weaker carbon tax. From a climate politics
perspective, the Argentine carbon tax case suggests the political limitations of an overreliance on international reputation arguments to advance climate policy innovation. In
relation to the MSA, the study highlights how policy windows can shape processes of
policy innovation and the analytical convenience of differentiating the coupling processes
between the agenda-setting and decision-making stages."
