Focusing on temporal, rather than spatial, aspects of governance, Ekengren (Swedish National Defense College) suggests that decision making and policy planning are being shaped by new rhythms, amplified temporal demands, and a heightened focus on the present. Chapters concentrate on political promises, conditions for political action, shifting horizons, and institutional implications. Charts and diagrams provide visual representations of the findings.
