Abstract

Abstract Invasive plant species (IPS) management in national parks is a complex problem often characterized by the involvement of various organizations with different responsibilities, legal mandates, and jurisdictions. These institutional arrangements shape the structure, function, and decision-making behaviors of organizations and influence management effectiveness. Drawing on institutional theory, this study analyzed institutional arrangements and how these influenced IPS management in Vietnam's national parks. Data were collected between May and July 2017 using in-depth interviews with 39 key informants with responsibility for IPS management at different institutional levels (national, provincial, and local national parks). Results demonstrated that IPS management in Vietnam's national parks was characterized by centralized management with overlaps and gaps in vertical institutional relationships that limited the effectiveness of horizontal relationships. These characteristics resulted in a lack of clear guiding regulations and limited resources that restricted decision making and hindered implementation at the local national park level. The study highlights the need for a common set of principles across agencies, governed by an overarching body to promote constructive relationships across the vertical and horizontal institutional dimensions of IPS management.

多层次视角下制度安排对入侵植物物种管理的影响——以越南国家公园为例

摘要国家公园中的入侵植物物种（IPS）管理是一个复杂的问题，其特征往往是具有不同职责、法律授权和管辖权的各种组织的参与。这些制度安排塑造了组织的结构、功能和决策行为，影响了管理的有效性。本研究借鉴制度理论，分析了制度安排及其对越南国家公园IPS管理的影响。2017年5月至7月期间，通过对39名负责不同机构级别（国家、省级和地方国家公园）IPS管理的关键信息员的深入访谈，收集了数据。结果表明，越南国家公园的IPS管理具有集中管理的特点，纵向制度关系存在重叠和差距，限制了横向关系的有效性。这些特点导致缺乏明确的指导性法规和有限的资源，限制了决策，阻碍了地方国家公园一级的实施。该研究强调，各机构需要一套共同的原则，由一个总体机构管理，以促进IPS管理的纵向和横向机构层面的建设性关系。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
