Stakeholder perceptions of recreational and management impacts on protected coastal dune systems: A comparison of three European countries

Who are the stakeholders and how do they respond to a local government payments for ecosystem services program in a developed area: A case study from Suzhou, China

“…However, the town officials and village cadres in charge of the payments knew a lot about the PES program. This was consistent with the existing conclusion that participation is affected by the perception differences of stakeholders (Butler, Skewes, Mitchell, Pontio, & Hills, 2014;Kindermann & Gormally, 2013;Maier, Lindner, & Winkel, 2014).…”

Is the choice of conservation measures influenced by the targeted natural habitats? The case of French coastal Natura 2000 sites

“…Table 1 also gives a summary of the range of measures empirically encountered in the Docobs. This summary is consistent with what is observed in terms of conservation measures in coastal areas (Cicin-Sain and Belfiore, 2005;Kindermann and Gormally, 2013) and more generally in environmental policies (Perret, 2010), even if the number of categories and the level of detail of each category vary from one research perspective to another (Vedung, 1998). Primarily used in the absence of a more precise description of one of the other types a given measure deployed.…”

“…More specifically, we will examine whether some types of conservation measure seem to be specifically associated with different types of habitats, and in particular coastal habitats. If the existence of different types of conservation measure in different contexts can be inferred from the literature (see for instance Environment Directorate-General, 2015b and Kindermann and Gormally, 2013), as far as we know, a systematic analysis of this link has not been carried out yet.…”

The social identity approach to understanding socio-political conflict in environmental and natural resources management

“…This is reflected in ENRM case studies, where these 'usual suspects' emerge as: industry (the private sector, e.g. mining, energy, agriculture, forestry, aquaculture and fisheries, depending on the issue); jurisdictional governments; environmentalists/ conservationists (NGOs); and community (Aanesen et al, 2014;Brummans et al, 2008;Bryan, 2008;Cárcamo et al, 2014;Fox et al, 2013;Kindermann and Gormally, 2013;Lane, 2003;Lewicki et al, 2003;Moore and Koontz, 2003;Redpath et al, 2013). Kahane et al (2013) and Soma and Vatn (2014) further distinguish between stakeholders and the citizenry, where the citizenry are considered to be individuals representing the public interest as opposed to the focused interests of stakeholders.…”
