Transportation Planning and Implementation in Cities of the Third World: The Case of Bangkok
SAGE Publications - Tập 13 Số 1 - Trang 25-45 - 1995
The Bangkok Metropolitan Region is synonymous with unprecedented growth as well
as with traffic conditions which rival the worst in the world. The current
transportation situation has evolved quickly, yet planners, international
donors, and many government leaders were not unaware of the magnitude of the
evolving problem. The federal and municipal governments have at their disposal a
number of sta...
Deliberative Multicriteria Evaluation
SAGE Publications - Tập 24 Số 2 - Trang 169-190 - 2006
Multicriteria evaluation (MCE) is a well-tried and effective procedure for
structuring and aiding complex decisionmaking processes, especially those
involving environmental considerations. Formal deliberative processes have also
been successful in aiding understanding and meeting consensus in complex and
difficult decision problems which involve more than one decisionmaker. Here,
both approaches a...
The Governance of Sustainable Development: Taking Stock and Looking Forwards
SAGE Publications - Tập 26 Số 1 - Trang 17-33 - 2008
The number of books and papers bearing the terms ‘sustainable development’ and
‘governance’ in their titles has grown exponentially in the last decade or so.
The main purpose of this paper is to explore what meanings have been attached to
these two essentially contested terms and to assess the extent to which the
material on them constitutes an important, coherent, and cumulative body of
scholarsh...
Growing Grassroots Innovations: Exploring the Role of Community-Based Initiatives in Governing Sustainable Energy Transitions
SAGE Publications - Tập 30 Số 3 - Trang 381-400 - 2012
The challenges of sustainable development (and climate change and peak oil, in
particular) demand system-wide transformations in sociotechnical systems of
provision. An academic literature around coevolutionary innovation for
sustainability has recently emerged as an attempt to understand the dynamics and
directions of such sociotechnical transformations, which are termed
‘sustainability transitio...
Intermediaries and Capability Building in ‘Emerging’ Clusters
SAGE Publications - Tập 32 Số 4 - Trang 714-730 - 2014
Increasing attention has begun to focus on the important role that organisations
undertaking intermediary functions can play in supporting emerging clusters of
small producers. In contrast to most studies of intermediaries that focus on
governance and filling information gaps, in this paper we examine how the
organisational skills of intermediaries evolve as firms in the cluster assume a
broader r...
Rescaling Spatial Planning: Spatial Planning Reforms in Denmark, England, and the Netherlands
SAGE Publications - Tập 33 Số 1 - Trang 184-198 - 2015
Following a wave of spatial planning reforms at the beginning of the 21st
century, a second wave of reforms has recently swept through several European
countries. In this study we investigate the significance of these latest
developments by analysing the reforms in Denmark, England, and the Netherlands
from the perspective of rescaling, the process of redividing tasks, and
responsibilities between...
Path Dependency and the Implementation of Environmental Regulation
SAGE Publications - Tập 25 Số 2 - Trang 250-268 - 2007
The authors examine the implementation of environmental regulation and
demonstrate that path dependency, created largely by resource constraints,
narrows the range of options for implementing regulation. It also magnifies the
impact of the institutional history of the regulatory body and the impact of the
disciplinary commitments of those working within the regulatory body on the
implementation pr...
The Role of Government in Disaster Management: The Case of theHebei SpiritOil Spill Compensation
SAGE Publications - Tập 29 Số 6 - Trang 1073-1086 - 2011
Despite trends toward decentralized disaster management inclusive of local
governments, civil organizations, and the private sector, we see centralized
management and strong government involvement in the International Convention on
Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage and the International Oil Pollution
Compensation's compensation for large oil spills around the world including the
Hebei Spiri...
India's Ecocity? Environment, Urbanisation, and Mobility in the Making of Lavasa
SAGE Publications - Tập 30 Số 6 - Trang 982-996 - 2012
In a context of rapid urbanisation in the Global South the potential of
ecocities to provide sustainable development is hotly debated within academic
and policy circles. This paper will contribute to this debate by referring to
Lavasa, India's largest planned ‘hill city’, a fifth of the size of Mumbai.
Mentioned in the influential McKinsey report as an emerging global city, Lavasa,
the first ‘sust...
Evidence, Uncertainty, and Wicked Problems in Climate Change Decision Making in Australia
SAGE Publications - Tập 32 Số 4 - Trang 663-679 - 2014
Policy makers have had great difficulty in understanding and responding
effectively to complex or ‘wicked’ problems. Contentious policy initiatives are
hard to implement when knowledge bases are divergent and incomplete, when
short-term interests conflict with long-term benefits, and when problems are
construed or framed in very different ways. These features of wicked problems
have been central i...
