Adaptive Comanagement and Its Relationship to Environmental Governance

摘要: We provide a systematic review of the adaptive comanagement (ACM) literature to (i) investigate how concept governance is considered and (ii) examine what insights ACM offers with reference six key concerns in environmental literature: accountability legitimacy; actors roles; fit, interplay, scale; adaptiveness, flexibility, learning; evaluation monitoring; and, knowledge. Findings from uncover complicated relationship evidence conceptual closeness as well relational ambiguities. The findings also reveal several specific contributions each concerns, including applied strategies for sharing power responsibility value systems approaches understanding problems fit. More broadly, research suggests dissolving or fuzzy boundary between governance, implications emerging navigate social-ecological system change. Future opportunities may be found at confluence scholarship, such identifying ways build capacity encouraging development more flexible arrangements.
