Framework for cross-border governance: from cross-border critical factors to sustainable development
通过系统文献综述和专家访谈,识别出跨境治理的12个关键因素,构建了包含四个维度的框架和模型,帮助边境地区推进可持续发展。
Cross-border regions became a central discussion space regarding political stability and global sustainability. In this context, cross-border governance (CG) proposes interdependency management to achieve better results. Our research aims to identify the critical factors for CG and proposes theoretical/practical tools for helping border regions advance towards sustainable development (SD). To do so, we conducted a systematic literature review and interviews with experts. The data resulted in a framework with 12 critical factors in four CG dimensions – Territorial, Resources, Institutional, and Political-Regulatory, and a CG model that can help political cooperation for integrated regional programmes towards SD.
