ABSTRACT
Scientists and professionals from all over the world are debating about the appropriate governance in the Anthropocene, adopting different disciplinary perspectives. This chapter aims to promote discussion about the need of integrating the multiple dimensions that should be considered in the framework of governance for sustainability. It offers a possible evidence of the general reasoning related to the use of the model as a possible reference in the development of a governance model for sustainable development. The basic idea of the model is that the conditions of equilibrium between the three spheres of sustainability can be read as the outcome of the three actors’ intertwined behaviours. These are: the environmental, the social and the economic ones. In the field of sustainability, it has been elaborated in several domains including further elements in a fashion of quadruple and even quin-tuple helix models.
