This volume investigates the mechanisms and institutional frameworks required to manage long-term social-ecological change in an era of increasing environmental instability. The editors, Bernd Siebenhüner, Klaus Eisenack, Klaus Jacob, and Marlen Arnold, assemble a multidisciplinary team of scholars to analyze how governance structures, economic policies, and participatory processes can be adapted to address complex, slow-moving environmental crises. The text argues that traditional short-term political cycles are insufficient for addressing systemic ecological shifts, proposing instead a framework that integrates expert knowledge, adaptive policy innovation, and multi-stakeholder engagement.
