Abstract

This feature provides an overview of the propensity of the panacea approach to resource governance to fail. This article gives analysis and evidence as to why general models and solutions are inadequate in addressing the diverse challenges faced in governance systems. It also shows researchers how to take a more focused approach in constructing more suitable policies for a specific case.
