A marine pollution governance assessment framework - the case of emerging tyre wear particles governance in the European Union
Despite global regulatory efforts over the last 50 years, marine pollution remains a persistent challenge. Its transboundary nature requires a multifaceted governance approach that encompasses land-based sectors as well as pathways of pollution from land to sea. Understanding why marine pollution governance struggles to be effective requires examining actor interactions and power dynamics that shape regulatory outcomes. This article therefore dev…
Network power and exclusion of informal waste pickers when plastic flows change
Countries, like Indonesia, without advanced waste management systems and with higher levels of population and consumption growth, face particular challenges in addressing plastic waste and marine pollution. To address and prevent plastic marine pollution, Indonesia introduced mitigation initiatives, such as Extended Producer Responsibility, waste banks, and take back schemes. While recent research shows such approaches are able to prevent marine …
Science is not enough
Several scientific programs are investigating the potential for the mesopelagic zone to provide food, fish meal, and nutraceutical supplements for human food systems. However, it is not clear whether fishing in the mesopelagic zone will be granted a social license to operate. Three analogous marine cases and three rounds of stakeholder engagement identified diverse perspectives about the pragmatic, moral, and cognitive legitimacy of human activit…
Enhancing institutional capacity in a centralized state
This article uses an institutional capacity framework to assess the interplay between the macro level institutional environment in the form of the centralized Vietnamese state, and the meso level institutional capacity of three different industrial zones to develop technological water use efficiency strategies. Our results show that the relational, knowledge, and mobilization capacities of these industrial zones are constrained by the centralized…
Investigating two mobile just-in-time adaptive interventions to foster psychological resilience
The DynaM-INT study intends to advance the field of resilience research by feasibility-testing two new mechanistically targeted JITAIs that aim at increasing individual stress resilience and identifying predictors for successful intervention response. Determining these predictors is an important step toward future randomized controlled trials to establish the efficacy of these interventions
Decarbonisation of the shipping sector – Time to ban fossil fuels
Shipping contributes roughly 2.8 % of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and this is projected to increase in the decades to come. The main regulator of the shipping industry, the International Maritime Organization (IMO), bears the responsibility for developing climate change regulation. Yet the IMO decarbonisation target remains only a 50 % reduction by 2050, and, while regulatory measures have been adopted, these mostly focus…
The Social Licence to Operate and the legitimacy of resource extraction
The Social Licence to Operate (SLO) has emerged as a leading concept to assess the legitimacy of extractive operations. This article examines recent SLO literature to discuss how the SLO is conceptualized and enacted. Our discussion focuses on three main themes: (1) who are considered to be relevant stakeholders; (2) the ways in which these stakeholders are engaged; and (3) how social and environmental impacts of extractive operations are conside…
The Potential and Limits of Environmental Disclosure Regulation
Exploring how transnational environmental governance and the operation of global value chains (GVCs) intersect is key in explaining the circumstances under which mandatory disclosure can improve the environmental footprint of business operations. We investigate how the governance dynamics of the tanker shipping value chain (a major emitter of greenhouse gases) limits the effectiveness of the European Union (EU) monitoring, reporting, and verifica…

New directions in earth system governance research
The Earth System Governance project is a global research alliance that explores novel, effective governance mechanisms to cope with the current transitions in the biogeochemical systems of the planet. A decade after its inception, this article offers an overview of the project's new research framework (which is built upon a review of existing earth system governance research), the goal of which is to continue to stimulate a pluralistic, vibrant a…
Environmental Mobilities
This article explores the relations between movement, the environment, and governance through the cases of cruise tourism, plastics in the oceans, and environmental migration. It does so by means of a mobilities perspective, which has its origins in sociology and geography. This perspective shifts the analytical focus toward mobilities and environmental problems to understand their governance, as opposed to starting with governance, as many globa…
Authority in Arctic governance
The External Dimension of European Union Marine Governance
This article focuses on the emergence of a decentralized institutional complex, interplay management, and the institutional interplay between the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the EU in the issue area of environmental shipping policies. It shows that the synergistic relationship between both institutions has been driven primarily by commitment and compliance mechanisms. By influencing IMO decision-making and improving the implemen…
