title = "Contested Stakeholder Consultations in Global Comparative Perspective",
abstract = "The contestation that occurs around the meaning, governance and practice of stakeholder consultation is the central concern of this book. This introductory chapter considers how regime theory can be applied to the governance of stakeholder consultation, and defines our usage of the term “consultation regime”. This concept highlights the importance of contestation over power, interests and ideas, broadens our view of consultation to embrace multiple visions, actors and sources of authority, and recognises that the complex interaction between sources of authority generates tensions that affect the practice of consultation and its effectiveness. The book is divided into four main sections that are discussed and contextualised in the relevant literature: how to understand complexity in the consultation regime; how the meaning of consultation is contested; how process rules affect stakeholder perceptions of consultation; and practitioner insights into how consultation works in practice.",
