This book includes contributions from an international and multidisciplinary research network formed to analyse  the evolution of the discourse on sustainability in Europe. The Governance for Sustainability in Europe research  network was established with support from the University Association for Contemporary European Studies (UACES), and was co-financed by Ecole Supérieure des Sciences Commerciales d’Angers (ESSCA) Graduate School of Management,  Angers, France and the Universities of Leeds and Bradford, UK. The network includes more than 50 international  contributors. They are drawn from the academic community, policy makers, policy implementers and practitioners.
      All have research expertise in various aspects of environmental policy in Europe, in both theoretical and applied contexts.
      The research included in this volume was presented during a series of research workshops held by the members of  the network at the universities of Bradford (2009), Leeds (2010), ESSCA, Angers (2011) and Trinity Hall, University of Cambridge (2012). The diversity of the disciplines and interests of the research network has provided an opportunity for wide-ranging exchange of views and ideas about the evolution of the political discourse on sustainability in Europe.
