Köp båda 2 för 1615 krThis revised and extended version of a classic is as incisive as ever in orienting readers to the major issues associated with the concept of governance. Adopting a state-centric perspective, the book brings to light why and how state-society interaction transforms the character of contemporary governing. * Christopher Ansell, University of California, Berkeley, USA * Impressive! This fully revised new edition of a classic book has retained its great narrative style and original views and insights, yet now also perceives governance with a stronger historical sensitivity as well as a keen eye for new development such as public participation and populism. A must read. * Thomas Schillemans, Utrecht University School of Governance, the Netherlands *
