许多资源管理问题都是由于治理的失败而产生的。因此,更好地了解治理机制对于自然资源的可持续管理至关重要。本文提出了一种旨在深入了解水治理机制的方法,该方法将一种用于比较分析不同社会和环境背景下案例研究的共享语言与关系数据库相结合。过渡框架一个概念框架,允许对水资源管理进行全面分析通过使用关系数据库,MTF变成了一个业务工具,该数据库便于存储大量数据,并为结构化分析提供了可能性对两个案例研究进行了探索性分析,以验证该方法在审查水资源管理纵向一体化方面的潜力。洪水管理到目前为止的经验让我们得出结论,所提出的方法增加了异质案例研究的可比性,并促进了系统分析这是得出不同类型的治理制度对水管理绩效的影响的一般见解的先决条件未来需要记录更多的案例,以确保可靠的统计基础,以进行可靠的分析(C)2010爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有
Many resource management problems arise from failures of governance A better under standing of governance regimes is therefore essential for a sustainable management of natural resources This paper presents an approach that aims to gain insights into water governance regimes by combining a shared language for comparative analyses of case studies from different social and environmental contexts with relational databases The shared language utilised is the Management and Transition Framework (MTF) a conceptual framework that allows comprehensive analyses of water management The MTF was turned into an operational tool through the usage of a relational database which facilitates the storage of large amounts of data and provides the possibility for structured analyses Explorative analyses were performed for two case studies in order to exemplify the potential of the approach for the examination of vertical integration in flood managementSo far experiences let us conclude that the presented approach increases the comparability of heterogeneous case studies and facilitates systematic analyses This is a prerequisite for the derivation of general insights into the effects of different types of governance regimes on the performance of water management More cases need to be recorded in the future to ensure a sound statistical base for robust analyses (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
