在这篇总结性的社论中，我们提出了关于各种文章的理论，经验和方法论探索的中心意见，这些文章构成了这个关于社会向可持续发展过渡的可治理性的特殊问题。我们详细阐述了每篇文章对可持续性转型治理和转型管理方法的具体贡献，并确定了不同文章之间有趣的相似性和差异。接下来，我们重新审视了我们在介绍性社论中提出的指导性问题，并通过综合八篇文章的贡献来回答这些问题：1）哪些理论观点是富有成果的; 2）哪些经验路径和治理原则对于治理可持续发展转型是可用的和有价值的; 3）我们对可持续发展转型的治理能力有何了解; 4）就治理可持续性过渡的努力而言，可持续性过渡有多特殊; 5）在试图治理可持续性过渡时，哪些规范性问题处于危险之中。最后，我们总结了可持续性转型治理实践和研究的未来挑战议程。
In this concluding editorial, we present the central observations regarding the theoretical, empirical and methodological explorations of the various articles that make up this special issue on the governability of societal transitions towards sustainability. We elaborate on the specific contributions of each article to the governance of sustainability transitions and the transition management approach and identify interesting similarities and differences between the various articles. Next, we revisit the guiding questions we formulated in the introductory editorial, and we answer these questions by synthesising the contributions of the eight articles regarding: 1) which theoretical perspectives are fruitful; 2) which empirical pathways and governance principles are available and valuable for governing sustainability transitions; 3) what we learnt about the governability of sustainability transitions; 4) how special sustainability transitions are as far as efforts to govern them are concerned; 5) which normative issues are at stake when attempting to govern sustainability transitions. We conclude the present editorial with an agenda of next challenges for both the practice and the study of the governance of sustainability transitions.
