Abstract

This chapter stresses the need for a robust regulatory framework to reshape financial supervision and support the transition to an ecologically sustainable global community. The chapter develops three arguments: (1) The process of transitioning to an ecologically sustainable future displays the fundamental characteristics of a global public good and must be addressed according to the requirements of public-good provisioning (beyond the micro-rational "efficiency" of market-driven decision-making). (2) Achieving ecological sustainability requires combining global, government-led governance and (top-down inclusive) regulation with small- and medium-scale community and regional measures (bottom/mid-up polycentrism). (3) Using the precautionary/preventive principle to guide economic regulation, combined with regulatory adaptation and improvement over time, would provide a sustainable financial structure to support the eco-transition process toward a more economically, ecologically, and socially viable global society. A few rules are then proposed to suggest a relevant direction for such an alternative governance model.
