Unlike scientific management, which relies on science as the foundation for policies made through a central bureaucratic authority, adaptive governance integrates various types of knowledge and organizations. Adaptive governance relies on open decision-making processes recognizing multiple interests, community-based initiatives, and an integrative science in addition to traditional science.Case studies discussed include a program to protect endangered fish in the Colorado River with the active participation of water developers and environmentalists; a district ranger's innovative plan to manage national forestland in northern New Mexico; and how community-based forestry groups are affecting legislative change in Washington, D.C.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51682268971296,"sku":"NEW0231136250","price":45.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/616IUNshFhL.jpg?v=1779365257","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/adaptive-governance-integrating-science-policy-and-decision-making-0231136250","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
