The authors combine wide ranging theoretical thinking with informative case study material. They convincingly demonstrate that progress can only be made through a multi level governance plus approach that explicitly addresses accountability and the gaps that exist across various institutional, social, economic and political dimensions. -- David Banister, Professor of Transport Studies and Fellow of St Anne's College, Oxford University The authors provide a richly detailed account of the political pressures and divides that have impeded implementation of the UKs Climate Change Act. Using examples from transport in four major cities, the authors document the socio-political landscape of climate change policy and test alternative theories of multi-level governance. The book should be required reading for anyone concerned with governance in an increasingly complex world. -- Elizabeth Deakin, Professor of City and Regional Planning and Urban Design, University of California, Berkeley
