Opis

While governance theories are emerging primarily from Anglo-American sources, the notion that such approaches are not globally acceptable is timely in transdisciplinary discussion, particularly among those studying crises of sustainability globally. This book offers and affirms an innovative governance approach, arguing that it holds promise as a "universal" framework that is not colonizing in nature due to its grounding in relational process assumptions and practices. By using a holistic Governance Typology, the authors delve deeply into underlying philosophical commitments and carry them into practice.
