Governing Complexity in the 21st Century surveys the ways in which
social systems are becoming more complex. It shows how this
complexity impacts every aspect of life for individuals,
governments and societies in most social systems at individual,
regional, national and global scales and explores how embracing
'complexity thinking' can greatly improve the art of governance in
all policy areas. The book clearly explains the ideas and methods
of complexity science-widely accepted in both the natural and
social sciences-then demonstrates how 'complexity thinking' can be
applied to improve our understanding of governance and policy
actions. Providing a deep analysis of many governance challenges,
including economic development and technological innovation,
environment management, climate change and development in the
Middle East, the book also compares national responses to the
COVID-19 pandemic. Clear and jargon-free, this book is accessible
to undergraduates and scholars alike. It is essential reading for
policymakers everywhere, showcasing methods for governing
effectively and efficiently in our increasingly complex world. It
brings together the broad range of social and environmental science
fields and will be useful for those studying or working in policy,
politics and international relations, environmental issues,
business management, philosophy, history and sociology.

Through a critique of the economic, technological, political, and
ethical theories that are the basis for current policy, this book
shows that sustainable development proposals are at least
incomplete or impractical and at worst dangerously misleading.

Despite one hundred years of theorizing, scholars and practitioners
alike are constantly surprised by international and global
political events. The collapse of communism in Europe, the 1997
Asian financial crisis, and 9/11 have demonstrated the inadequacy
of current models that depict world politics as a simple,
mechanical system.
