The author examines policies and strategies for ecologically rational governance and uses the Swedish case study to ask if it is possible to move from a traditional environmental policy to a broad, integrated pursuit of sustainable development, as illustrated through the 'Sustainable Sweden' programme.
Where the grass is greener: criteria for ecologically rational governance -- 'Nested enterprises'? Spatial dimensions of ecological governance -- Up or down with the ecology cycle? Strategies for temporally rational ecological governance -- The commons of governing: the knowledge base of ecological governance -- Governing in common -- integration and effectiveness in ecological governance -- Democracy and ecological governance -- a balancing act -- Where the buck stops: governmental power and authority in democratic ecological governance.
