| description | Managing conflicts within natural resource management is important for sustainable development,
and one of the issues within this research area concerns key relationships between
agential and structural factors, desk officer’s space of action, and competence.
Based on Hay’s Strategic Rational Approach, this study analyses the opportunities and
challenges in the management of natural resources at the Swedish Environmental Protection
Agency. The analysis is based in a qualitative and abductive methodology with 13
interviews from purposively sampled cross cases. Key conclusions include that desk officers
perceive expert knowledge as the key competence for successful natural resource conflict
management; how an experienced gap between hierarchical levels and horizontal
functions results in non-optimal communication and inhibited learning; how strategic actors
can influence structure and how structure influence the decisions of strategic actors. |
