credible commitment

基本解释

The issues of credible commitments are critical for a transitional economy.
可信承諾問題是轉型經濟躰的一個重要問題。
But at least the parties' commitments would be credible, unlike those enshrined in the binding Kyoto Protocol of 1997, which countries flagrantly violated -- and which the Senate refused to ratify.
但是，至少承諾方是可信的，不像1997年的《京都議定書》。許多簽署國違背了該協議，而美國拒絕簽署。
Building confidence is essential to reducing risks of conflict, and involves signaling positive intent -- through credible early results and measures that convincingly lock-in commitments to change.
建立信心對於減少沖突風險是必不可少的，包括傳達積極的意圖——通過可信的初步成果和令人信服地鎖定變革承諾的措施。

Once companies have clarified where their responsibilities lie, as discussed in my earlier post, the next step is to make credible commitments to do something about them and then publicly fulfill those pledges.
