Introduction video of Taskforce by James Meadowcroft

James Meadowcroft (Carleton University), member of the Earth System Governance Lead Faculty, presents the Taskforce on Conceptual Foundations of Earth System Governance.

The Taskforce on Conceptual Foundations of Earth System Governance is a new research initiative established to explore key ideas that are coming to frame international discussion of the challenge of governance in times of global environmental change and earth system transformation. It is concerned with understanding, refining and critically interrogating concepts that increasingly provide the foundation for contemporary theory and practice in the environmental domain.
