“…Further, in developed and developing countries alike, emission sources are regulated under a number of statutes implemented at various times and applied over various spatial scales (Health Effects Institute, 2003). Such complexities are likely to increase as interest grows in a multimedia approach to environmental issues (Klausbruckner et al, 2016;Murray, 2013).…”

The field of air pollution accountability continues to grow in importance to a number of stakeholders. Two frameworks, the classical accountability chain and direct accountability, have been used to estimate impacts of regulatory actions, and both require careful attention to confounders and uncertainties. Researchers should continue to develop and evaluate both methods as they investigate current and future air pollution regulations.

“…Regarding policy instruments, prevalence has shifted from command-and-control tools such as laws, regulations and standards to economic incentive tools (such as taxes or emission trading) and soft (i.e. non-binding and non-sanctioned) types of regulations (such as informational policies, partnerships and voluntary/negotiated agreements; Jordan et al, 2005;Murray, 2013). Most recently, mandatory information disclosure regulation (such as the EU energy labels for household appliances and buildings), which combines binding regulation with governance via markets (Doshi et al, 2012), became an increasingly popular instrument.…”

“…Most recently, mandatory information disclosure regulation (such as the EU energy labels for household appliances and buildings), which combines binding regulation with governance via markets (Doshi et al, 2012), became an increasingly popular instrument. Regarding the underlying governance rationales, hierarchical steering was complemented by steering via markets and networks (Murray, 2013;Steurer, 2013).…”

Until the mid-2000s, the rise of a "new pattern of strategy formation" in the context of sustainable development (SD) appeared to be a promising shift from mostly ineffective one-off-planning to iterative governance processes. The present paper revisits this once promising governance approach critically. Based on studies, evaluations and peer reviews, it synthesizes how national SD strategies have failed as policy documents and as governance processes in better integrating policies across sectors and levels of government. Based on the conclusion that comprehensive policy integration cannot be achieved through a single multi-sectoral strategy, we argue that it is time to either abandon an approach that has obviously failed to deliver or to recalibrate SD strategies towards the more realistic end of effectively communicating a long-term vision. Although the political relevance of SD strategies has declined in recent years, our findings are relevant to implementing other multi-sectoral strategies and the post-2015 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. While the former replicate already the governance failures analyzed here, the implementation of the latter runs a considerable risk of doing so in the near future.

“…For European policy, the role of forests is increasing in importance for rural development [11], as they are a source of raw materials, food, and recreational value [12]. Rural development is oriented towards the use of local resources to provide benefit to the local population, and to prevent the depopulation of rural areas thorough increasing local employment opportunities [13e16].…”
