Governance Settlements and Transitions in Indigenous Areas of Limited Statehood: The Case of Coalmining in Meghalaya.Jacob Vakkayil - 2021 - Business and Society 60 (7):1643-1674.details This article explores governance issues in an area of limited statehood characterized by the combination of state and indigenous institutions.

However, as the field evolves, contestations and misalignments lead to changes in governance settlements. Analyzing these (...) Download Export citation Bookmark 1 citation

It analyzes how participants can be supported to act as institutional entrepreneurs to actively promote public engagement in R&I. To draw lessons, we analyze empirical material gathered on nineteen Social Labs which were set up to promote the uptake (...) Download Export citation Bookmark
