Resumen de Unravelling the UNFCCC’S institutional system: Halfway between treaty organs and international organization

Gloria Fernández Arribas

• According to the system established by the UNFCCC, the substantive obligations are adopted through different techniques and organs or bodies, from which emerges a large normative production with a different legal value.

  These treaty organs or bodies can be grouped into different categories from which it can be inferred the complexification of the UNFCCC’s organic system, and the absence of a clear legal status. To unravel this system and its organic structure, this paper will analyse the categories, comparing their composition, establishment and functions with the organs of international organizations, in order to determine how close they are to international organizations and how long the purported differentiation can be maintained or should be maintained.
