Confusion about governance abounds. We lack appreciation of how
different traditions of thought in the social sciences contribute
to our understanding. Governance Theory and Practice tackles these
issues head on, using a cross-disciplinary approach from political
science, public administration, international relations,
development studies, sociology and economics. Looking at collective
decision making in societal systems or organisations, the book
provides guidance on how power should be distributed, who should be
involved in a decision, and how policy should be enforced.
The growing interest in governance is precisely because established
institutional forms of governance appear under challenge and new
forms appear to be emerging. This reality is compelling new ways of
thinking about collective decision-making at a range of levels.
This book explores three critical areas of practice: environmental,
corporate and participatory governance. Knowledge of these
extensive intellectual resources will enrich academic debate and
enable those interested in reforming governance to move towards a
wider vision.
