Abstract: This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 License. It is free to read, download and share on Elgaronline. This book discusses the crisis in modern governance rooted in the social fragmentation of modern society, the expanding diversity of values, beliefs and lifestyles generated by globalization and the technological revolution. Chapters advocate for a convergence of the institutional theory of polycentricity and the political philosophy of modus vivendi – live and let live – as a basic conceptual framework to uphold a peaceful and tolerant society, while presenting detailed analysis of a wide range of case studies.
