Descripción
For poor areas dealing with economic decline, finding development engines
is a crucial issue, and natural resources are often the only asset communities
have. In the paper it is argued that concept of the network governance can be
applied to understand the situation, where local sustainable development is
desirable. In a qualitative case study of the Polish Drawienski National Park
area, four barriers for the establishment of network governance were found:
weakness of legal institutional framework including ambiguities about
property rights; lack of bridging social capital; persistence of informal norms
undermining public and formal operations; difficulties with undertaking
multilateral collective action. As an alternative to network governance, the
emerging structure takes a market or hierarchical form.
