Description :
This special issue focuses on concerns within geography and disciplines over the relations between science, policy and politics in the environmental sphere. The centrality of science to environmental understanding and action has led to its politicisation in the public sphere, and this complexity poses challenges for conceptualising and studying networks at this interface. The papers are addressing the relationship between extension and legitimacy, different types of network, and the ways in which science and democracy are linked by different actors for different means.
