Socio-Ecological Transition: Towards a Better Understanding of Transitions and their Governance - Lecture, Maastricht

We live in transitional times in search for new value systems. This goes along with turmoil, uncertainty, lack of confidence and fear.

From the transition perspective, crises are a chance for change since existing institutions are pushed and many embark on a quest for new values and norms.

In this lecture Rotmans will tell us that a radical change, a transition, is necessary in order to create a better and sustainable society. A new set of rules has to be transmitted to the people involved in any project, region or sector, so that they can give it a swing into a more sustainable direction.
