Societies around the world face an increasingly uncertain future as
social and ecological changes create pressure on resource
governance, and this uncertainty calls for new models that
illuminate the intersections of civil society, public sector, and
private sector resource management. This volume presents a
diversity of collaborations between various governance actors in
the management of the Food-Energy-Water (FEW) nexus. It analyses
the ability of emergent governance structures to cope with the
complexity of future challenges across FEW systems. Divided into
two sections, chapters in the first half of the book present a
collection of case studies from around the world exemplifying how
FEW nexus challenges are addressed in a multitude of ways and by a
variety of actors. Chapters in the second half offer broader
perspectives on the management of FEW and underline the lessons
that emerge from applying a FEW lens to the question of natural
resource governance. The varied examples in this book highlight
that the management of FEW is often a question of reinventing,
adapting, and building upon existing practices. Such practices are
deeply embedded in unique socio-cultural, environmental, and
political contexts as well as 'hard' infrastructures. Most of all,
this edited volume seeks to communicate the wealth of ideas from
committed individuals who continue to work to improve natural
resource governance and our sustainable futures.
