摘要
由于气候变化预计将改变世界各地历史上的洪水模式,洪水治理的适应性方法日益受到关注。协作网络对于适应性治理至关重要,因为它们可以创建一个由不同的参与者组成的、在不同的管辖区和空间层面发挥作用的、具有凝聚力的系统。本研究调查了加拿大 Wolastoq | Saint John 河流域洪水规划区域协作治理的网络结构。研究采用社会网络方法来评估该地区适应性洪水治理的程度和特征,特别是调查与集体行动困境、组织类型和地理规模相关的网络属性。该网络显示了组织类型的多样性、结合结构的倾向性、政府组织之间的同质性以及多流域参与者的突出中介活动。网络中结合型结构的存在反映了洪水规划所带来的高风险困境,其特点是政府和非政府行动者具有不同的权力、资源和组织能力。向适应性治理的过渡将得益于区域间联系的加强和政府组织间中介活动的增强。
Investigating the risky dilemma of regional flood planning: The case of the Wolastoq | Saint John River Basin, Canada
Adaptive approaches to flood governance are gaining attention as climate change is expected to alter historic flooding patterns around the world. Collaboration networks are essential to adaptive governance as they create a cohesive system of diverse actors functioning across different jurisdictions and spatial levels. This research investigates the network structure of the regional collaborative governance for flood planning in the Wolastoq | Saint John River Basin, Canada. A social network approach was employed to assess the extent and characteristics of adaptive flood governance in the region, specifically investigating network properties related to collective action dilemmas, organizational type, and geographic scale. The network displayed a diverse composition of organization types, a propensity for bonding structures, homophily among governmental organizations, and prominent brokerage activity of multi-basin actors. The presence of bonding structures in the network reflected the high-risk dilemma presented by flood planning, characterised by the presence of both government and non-governmental actors with diverse authority, resources, and organizational capacity. Transitioning to adaptive governance would benefit from increased connectivity among regions and enhanced brokerage activity amongst governmental organizations.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Science & Policy promotes communication among government, business and industry, academia, and non-governmental organisations who are instrumental in the solution of environmental problems. It also seeks to advance interdisciplinary research of policy relevance on environmental issues such as climate change, biodiversity, environmental pollution and wastes, renewable and non-renewable natural resources, sustainability, and the interactions among these issues. The journal emphasises the linkages between these environmental issues and social and economic issues such as production, transport, consumption, growth, demographic changes, well-being, and health. However, the subject coverage will not be restricted to these issues and the introduction of new dimensions will be encouraged.
