Reinventing Governance in a Volatile World addresses public governance worldwide, identifying challenges and innovative ways to improve the lives of those governed.

Based on their work on the Governance Cluster of the international think-tank Global Forum/Shaping the Future, the authors analyse successful strategies and key findings that help governments and institutions promote engagement and involve a broader set of stakeholders in decisions and governance, as well as the place of technology in its proper role as a supporting instrument. The book addresses crucial issues such as the depletion of trust and democracy at the global level, governance of the environment, the crisis of leadership, sovereignty concerns over the Internet and artificial intelligence (AI) and the need for behavioural change for greater sustainability. It provides tools and illustrative case studies for governance actors, including engagement mechanisms and arguments for action.

The book’s primary audience includes governments, policy analysts, civil society bodies/NGOs and other national and international actors involved in public governance. It is also of interest for students and researchers of political science, public administration, governance and management and international relations.
