The working title of the monograph (to be submitted to Palgrave Macmillan in April, 2021) is “From Governance Failure to Failure Governance: A Relational Turn in Governing Wicked Problems”. In the book, the authors try to articulate their relational view of governing societal problems whose identity is constantly changing due to their hypercomplex and dynamic nature (often referred to as “wicked problems”), making the potential governor constantly liable to failure. Hence, they propose the figure “failure governance” for capturing the main ethos of their approach to wicked problems that is based on relational understanding of social and political world.

The seminar will be held in English and via Zoom

Zoom link will be provided to all registered people before the seminar.
