Reviews

'The discussions in this edited volume are at the forefront of the territorial governance debate, as it helps to capture knowledge-related and territorial/place-based elements, which have been overlooked in other governance-research frameworks. The novelty of the book lies not on trying to define (once again) 'governance' but focuses, instead, on the processes by which actors and institutions at different levels formulate and implement policies, programmes and projects, in order to achieve - in an efficient, inclusive and sustainable manner - a territorial goal.' Eduardo Oliveira (2016), Regional Studies
