Conclusions: Metagovernance as framework for SDG implementationReviewsMetagovernance is an underplayed but critical element in understanding and addressing complex and `wicked' policy problems like the sustainable development goals. This book will become the core text in this area and the marriage of theoretical understanding and practical experience offered makes this book valuable for academics and practitioners alike. - Prof. Paul Jackson, International Development Department, University of Birmingham, UK Louis Meuleman combines the insights of complex governance theory with his thoroughly reflected empirical evidence as a policy maker. The result is a book that is a must for those who strive for enhanced professionalism in governance for sustainable development. - Roeland J. in 't Veld, em. professor governance and sustainability, Tilburg University, Netherlands We need well-designed, inclusive governance to implement the Sustainable Development Goals.

Governments, civil society and business need each other to achieve sustainability, but the road to success is not paved with blueprints. - Prof. Guenther Bachmann, General Secretary, German Council for Sustainable Development To realize the 17 SDGs by 2030, it will be necessary to have effectiveness, accountability, and inclusion as key principles for its governance. These principles of governance, as endorsed by the ECOSOC Council, are necessary but not sufficient. Meuleman's book proves that `metagovernance' of hierarchical, network and market governance will be indispensable. There are many books on SDGs, but this is a `metabook' which will inspire and guide all those responsible for and studying the SDGs. - Prof. Geert Bouckaert, KU Leuven, Belgium, President of the International Institute of Administrative Sciences Author InformationLouis Meuleman is member of the United Nations Committee of Experts on Public Administration (CEPA)(2018-2021), and works at the European Commission in Brussels as coordinator of the Environmental Implementation Review and the greening of the ‘European Semester.’ He is affiliated with the universities of Leuven (Belgium), Massachusetts Boston (USA) and Wageningen (the Netherlands).
