As a novel theory of governance, EGT understands governance as radically evolutionary, which implies that all elements of governance are subject to evolution, that these elements co-evolve and that many of them are the product of governance itself. Through this book we learn how communities understand themselves and their environment and why they create the complex structures and processes we analyze as governance paths. Authors from different disciplines develop the EGT framework further and apply it to a wide range of governance issues that cover topics such as welfare state governance, networks of power, governance of agricultural resources etc. The contributors also reflect on the possibilities and limitations of steering, intervention, management and development in a world continuously in flux. It bridges the gap between more fundamental and philosophical accounts of the social sciences and applied studies, offering theoretical advancement as well as practical recommendations.Public administrationPolitical scienceCorporate governanceDevelopment economicsSociologyEnvironmental managementPublic Administrationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34030Political Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911000Corporate Governancehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/511020Development Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000Knowledge - Discoursehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22120Environmental Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009Public administration.Political science.Corporate governance.Development economics.Sociology.Environmental management.Public Administration.Political Science.Corporate Governance.Development Economics.Knowledge - Discourse.Environmental Management.330330.15Beunen Raouledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtVan Assche Kristofedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDuineveld Martijnedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298512403321Evolutionary Governance Theory2519753UNINA
