- 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

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)
