The contributors to Institutions and Environmental Change have identified the key societal challenge facing governments at the onset of the 21st century. While many environmentalists point to 'tipping points' of global environmental change, the authors in this volume search for and identify bureaucratic 'choke points' that serve to block necessary institutional change. This book will be a clarion call for governments and practitioners worldwide trying to address growing climate and climate-related crises."--Michael H. Glantz, Senior Scientist, The National Center for Atmospheric Research "This project report from the Institutional Dimensions of Global Environmental Change Project is exciting, important, and at the forefront of research. The editors provide an excellent theoretical overview backed up with strong empirical evidence. It is addressed to a broad group of social scientists, ecologists, and environmental scientists interested in environmental change. A wonderful achievement."--Elinor Ostrom, Co-Director, Workshop in Political Theory and Policy Analysis, Indiana University -- Elinor Ostrom
