Abstract | The present chapter develops a brief, introductory account of some of
the more stringent perspectives and proposals on how to inquire into the
governance of ecosystem services. The objective is not to
provide a state-of-the-art document, but to propose a limited set of
contingent domains of inquiry. The double shift from government to
governance and from ecosystems/species as the object of steering to
ecosystem services drastically opens the set of domains of inquiry into
recognizing more complexity, more processes, more actors, more natures
of actors, more dynamics, more networks, more scales, and more times. We
conclude that while embracing knowledge diversity has been considered a
strategy for taking into account the many faces of complexity, the
foreclosure of knowledge-providing mechanisms is an obvious issue of
power that should be subjected to closer inquiry in socioecological
governance thinking. |
