CLM includes long-form articles, events listings, publication reviews, new product information and updates, reports of conferences and letters.
The book outlines an integrative theoretical framework and examines examples of stakeholder dialogues and public participation in three areas: science, policy and management. The current practice has been to analyse these separately. However, the three areas should ideally be closely interrelated. Therefore, we aim to integrate them within this book by using case studies as examples and by developing a theory of reflexive dialogues, which can be applied in all three domains.
