Cash, D. W., W. Adger, F. Berkes, P. Garden, L. Lebel, P. Olsson, L. Pritchard, and O. Young. 2006. Scale and cross-scale dynamics: governance and information in a multilevel world. Ecology and Society 11(2): 8. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-01759-110208
Key Findings
1
Cross-scale institutional interactions can create both opportunities and obstacles for addressing complex environmental problems.
2
It emphasizes that effective governance requires information that is salient, credible, and legitimate across different spatial, temporal, and institutional scales.
3
Managing multilevel systems requires attention to mismatches between the scales of ecological processes, information, and decision-making.
4
The analysis highlights the importance of improving communication, coordination, and institutional linkages across levels of governance.
5
The paper examines how scale and cross-scale dynamics shape governance and information flows in multilevel environmental systems.
