The Role of Non-state Actors in the Green Transition: Building a Sustainable Future

Jens Hoff, "The Role of Non-state Actors in the Green Transition: Building a Sustainable Future "
English | ISBN: 0367235595 | 2019 | 276 pages | EPUB | 2 MB

This book argues that there is no way to make progress in building a sustainable future without extensive participation of non-state actors.
The volume explores the contribution of non-state actors to a sustainable transition, starting with citizens and communities of different kinds and ending with cities and city-networks. The authors analyse social, cultural, political and economic drivers and barriers for this transition, from individual behaviour to structural restraints, and investigate interplay between the two. Through a series of wide-ranging case studies from the UK, Australia, Germany, Italy and Denmark, and a number of comparative case studies, the volume provides an empirically and theoretically robust argument that highlights the need to develop, widen and scale up collective action and community-based engagement if the transition to sustainability is to be successful.
