The 25 case studies in the preceding chapters (Chapters 5–10) reveal how the process of change can erupt from crises and related moments of transition. The goal of this chapter is to bring forward key results and insights from these case narratives and broader application discussions in which they are embedded. To do so, the chapter is structured around two objectives: (1) Provide a general synthesis of the case study transitions and how the sequence of stress, crisis, transition, and transformation was expressed; and (2) present and examine a set of insights revealed by the framework application. Attention is given to the connection between the underlying drivers (i.e., root, context, and proximate) and spheres of action (i.e., social, ecological/environmental, and technological/infrastructural) and the conditions of stress, crisis, and transition. At the end of the chapter, some observations and suggestions on ways to advance the framework are presented. The discussion focuses on the connection between the pattern and pace of crisis and the resulting transition and transformation. Relevant crisis and resilience indicators are presented as an approach to assess the environmental policy transition process.
