Abstract
The current debate regarding organizational strategies for sustainable

development is influenced by the theory of global governance. Decentralized

structures of the global society are taken to use in the realization of a sustainable

development. New roles of transnational networks and partnerships raises

questions of the ability of global governance to co-ordinate and implement longterm

solutions without assistance from centralized and hierarchic structures based

The current debate regarding organizational strategies for sustainable

development is influenced by the theory of global governance. Decentralized

structures of the global society are taken to use in the realization of a sustainable

development. New roles of transnational networks and partnerships raises

questions of the ability of global governance to co-ordinate and implement longterm

solutions without assistance from centralized and hierarchic structures based

on government. The aim for this thesis is to illustrate the current conditions for

well-functioning networks of sustainable development and examine the

relationship between global governance and government. Issues of participation,

decision making and compliance are examined by a case study of the Marrakech

process, a global process to support the implementation of sustainable

consumption and production. The essay concludes that global governance and

government are interdependent preconditions in the creation of long-term and

effective networks. Government structures are needed to co-ordinate and realize

multi-stakeholder initiatives parallel to the need of decentralized structures to

fully implement policies. The Marrakech process illustrates these preconditions of

centralized decentralization. (Less)
