Communities and social enterprises in the age of globalization (2007, background): “The processes of contemporary globalization are dominated by flows of information, people, goods and services that are seemingly instantaneous and can occur over a large portion of the earth ( Young et al. , 2006”
Research, part of a Special Feature on Sustaining Ecosystem Services in Cultural Landscapes: Analysis and Management Options Exploring Futures of Ecosystem Services in Cultural Landscapes through Participatory Scenario Development in the Swabian Alb, Germany (2013, background): “On the other hand, the decline of local diversity through the mixing and homogenization, most prominently of biological and cultural diversity, as well as of management practices, has been described as a major impact of globalized land use (Young et al. 2006, Gómez-Baggethun et al. 2010).”
Reconnecting to the Biosphere (2011, background): “Globalizing human–environment interactions are characterized by increasing connectivity, speed, mobility, and scale (Young et al. 2006).”
Social-ecological resilience and biosphere-based sustainability science (2016, background): “The Earth as transformed by human actions (Turner et al. 1990, Mora 2014, Williams et al. 2015) and the speed, spread, and connectivity of the Anthropocene epitomize contemporary not just linked but intertwined social-ecological systems (Young et al. 2006, Galaz et al. 2012, Helbing 2013).”
Environmental governance: participatory, multi-level - and effective? (2009, background): “This is typically expected with environmental problems characterised by increasingly complex spatial interrelations of societal and ecological processes (Jordan 2000; Meadowcroft 2002; Young et al. 2006).”
Robustness Trade-offs in Social-Ecological Systems (2007, background): “However, the recent globalization of social, economic, political, and ecological processes generates important opportunities and challenges for the robustness of social-ecological systems (Young et al. 2006).”
Challenges and growth: the development of the interdisciplinary field of institutional analysis (2007, background): “Considerable agreement now exists related to the importance of diverse institutional arrangements in public economies ranging from local to national to global (Aoki, 2001; Ruttan, 2003, 2006; E. Ostrom, 2005; Young et al., 2006).”
Synchronous failure: the emerging causal architecture of global crisis (2015, background): “The third trend is the increasing homogeneity, or declining diversity, of human cultures, institutions, practices, and technologies (Boli and Thomas 1997, Meyer 2000, Young et al. 2006), including technologies that exploit ecosystem services, such as agriculture and aquaculture.”
Governance and Complexity—Emerging Issues for Governance Theory (2008, background): “While these processes have been portrayed and acknowledged by a number of political science scholars (e.g., Held 2000; Pierre and Peters 2005; Young et al. 2006), we often fail to recognize that these and other cross-level drivers of change do not add up in a linear, predictable manner.”
