1. In Sect. 7.2 it is opted for a collaborative governance process. Renn and Webler
(1994) discuss the pros and cons of different decision-making processes and, finally,
argue for a cooperative process involving stakeholders from the beginning. Try to
comprehend the argumentation and discuss what are the benefits and what are the
pitfalls – see, for example, Renn (1999, 2006) and Renn and Klinke (2013).
2. In Sect. 7.3 assessment schemes have briefly been outlined. Discuss the differences
between economic utility functions and methods of multicriteria analysis. What are
the pros and cons with regard to coastal management issues?
3. In Sect. 7.4 a principal participatory integrated assessment process is proposed as
tool of choice. Now the proposed scheme should be enlivened for adjusted application to different tasks. Design a detailed participatory integrated assessment process
using different participatory and assessment tools. See also Sect. 8.1.
4. Regarding the assessment of processes and projects the question may be raised how
to assess progress in integrated coastal zone management? A variety of literature
can be found dealing with the identification of appropriate indicators and criteria
for the status and the progress of ICZM, here, only a few are selected, for example, Cendrero and Fischer (1997); Burbridge (1997); Olsen et al. (1999) and
Olsen (2003). Based on these, and of course others, compile a list of indicators
and criteria for the assessment of coastal zone management.
5. Figure 7.9 indicates the demand of resources in projects as well as in processes in
general. Explain the diagram.
