Double-weighted statement

This book frames and clarifies the governance theory debate, challenging a number of its assumptions and the conventional wisdom. It combines substantial analytical breadth and a detailed sector level comparative analysis, making major analytical insights by focusing on the explanatory value of the policy transfer and policy sequencing arguments. It takes the hugely ambitious step of studying detailed environmental policy-making across 4 states (Austria, Germany, the Netherlands and the UK) and the EU from 1970-2012 to understand governance evolution over time; this required 10 years of research in English, German and Dutch as well as nearly 300 elite interviews.
