The governance of adaptation: choices, reasons, and effects. Introduction to the Special Feature (2016, background): “Following Duit and Galaz (2008), such organizations have a weak explorative capacity and do not scan the future for possible surprises.”
Global Sustainable Development Report 2019 (2019, background): “730 Duit and Galaz, 2008; Heikkila et al., 2018; Tormos‐ Aponte et al, 2018; Piketty and Goldhammer, 2014.”
The uniqueness of the energy security, justice, and governance problem☆ (2012, background): “Studies centering on governance for complexity (Duit and Galaz, 2008; Meadowcroft, 2009), ecosystem, and resource management (Folke et al., 2005; Loorbach, 2010; Pahl-Wostl, 2009), or ‘‘transition management’’ (Geels, 2002; Kern and Smith, 2008; Loorbach, 2010) seem to be promising starting points.”
The Emergent Network Structure of the Multilateral Environmental Agreement System (2013, background): “The hierarchically nested structure tends to provide stability and flexibility at the same time, enabling both exploitation and exploration for enhanced adaptive capacity (Duit and Galaz, 2008; Duit et al., 2010; Ebbesson, 2010).”
Governing autonomous vehicles: emerging responses for safety, liability, privacy, cybersecurity, and industry risks (2018, methodology): “This strategy corresponds to fragile strategy (Duit & Galaz, 2008).”
Advancing adaptive governance of social-ecological systems through theoretical multiplicity (2016, background): “Its distinctiveness is that it aims to expand the focus from the management of ecosystems towards addressing the complexity of ‘‘broader social contexts’’ within which people make decisions and share power (Dietz et al., 2003; Duit and Galaz, 2008; Folke et al., 2005: 444).”
Social-ecological systems as complex adaptive systems: organizing principles for advancing research methods and approaches (2018, background): “The gradual conceptual development from separate environmental and human systems to an understanding of intertwined complex adaptive SES has changed how these relations and interactions are viewed and subsequently studied, modeled, and governed (Folke et al. 2005, Duit and Galaz 2008).”
Resilience and robustness in policy design: a critical appraisal (2017, background): “…systems also raises conceptual challenges in any application of resilience thinking to the study of policies and societies, although the value of taking a resilience approach to understanding such complexity and dynamism has also been noted (Duit and Galaz 2008; Davidson 2010; Duit et al. 2010).”
Integrating ecological, economic and social aspects to generate useful management information under the EU Directives' ‘ecosystem approach’ (2012, background): “…sources) to the international levels (e.g. directives controlling water quality by WFD and protecting biodiversity by the Convention on Biological Diversity), reflecting the growing wider societal level of concern (Costanza, 2000; Duit and Galaz, 2008; de Jonge, 2007; Marques et al., 2009).”
The Adaptive Capacity Wheel: a method to assess the inherent characteristics of institutions to enable the adaptive capacity of society (2010, background): “…Tol, 2002; Mendelsohn and Nordhaus, 1999; Marlin et al., 2007; Smit et al., 2000; Smit and Pilifosova, 2001) as well as from the organizational change literature (e.g. Lengnick-Hall and Beck, 2005; Weick and Sutcliffe, 2001), and from cybernetics and complexity theories (e.g. Duit and Galaz, 2008).”
Environmental governance and its implications for conservation practice (2012, background): “Here, ideas of institutional “fit” and interplay are gaining traction (Duit & Galaz 2008; Young et al. 2008).”
