Why do consensus building efforts in a consolidating democracy
often fail to resolve regulatory disputes and even escalate them?
Dong-Young Kim uses the three, detailed, recent case studies of the
efforts to balance economic development and environmental concerns
in rapidly industrialized and democratizing Korea. He explores the
main obstacles inherent in a consolidating democracy to meeting
necessary conditions for successful consensus building process with
a new research framework which incorporates the theory of
negotiation and consensus building into the theory of policy
process. He shows that dispute resolution efforts initiated by
policy entrepreneurs who are not neutral are likely to fall victims
to adversarial power games in politics rather than genuine
consensus building process. 'For anyone interested in comparative
studies of regulatory negotiation, conflict resolution and
environmental management, this is a major find.' Lawrence Susskind,
Vice-Chair for Instruction, Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law
School. 'Kim's study is a must read for anyone wishing to
understand South Korea's environmental policy dilemmas and emerging
dispute resolution systems.' Miranda A. Schreurs, Director,
Environmental Policy Research Center and Professor of Comparative
Policies, Freie Universitt Berlin.
