Recherche

Elena’s research is focused on regional environmental governance with the case studies originating from the Eastern Europe. This part of the world is influenced by various trends and traditions in terms of approaches to policy making in general and to environmental governance in particular. It is therefore interesting and important to determine and assess institutional processes and responses to pluri-regionality which is one of the realities determining environmental governance here. 

 

Axes de recherche
