In this innovative volume, the author addresses some important
challenges related to the effective and equitable governance of
marine protected areas (MPAs). These challenges are explored
through a study of 20 MPA case studies from around the world. A
novel governance analysis framework is employed to address some key
questions: How can top-down and bottom-up approaches to MPA
governance be combined? What does this mean, in reality, in
different contexts? How can we develop and implement governance
approaches that are both effective in achieving conservation
objectives and equitable in fairly sharing associated costs and
benefits? The author explores the many issues that these questions
raise, as well as exploring options for addressing them. A key
theme is that MPA governance needs to combine people, state and
market approaches, rather than being based on one approach and its
related ideals. Building on a critique of the governance analysis
framework developed for common-pool resources, the author puts
forward a more holistic and less prescriptive framework for
deconstructing and analyzing the governance of MPAs. This
inter-disciplinary analysis is aimed at supporting the development
of MPA governance approaches that build social-ecological
resilience through both institutional and biological diversity. It
will also make a significant contribution to wider debates on
natural resource governance, as it poses some critical questions
for contemporary approaches to related research and offers an
alternative theoretical and empirical approach.
