| Beyond Efficiency – Exploring the Political and Institutional Dimensions of Market-based Instruments for Ecosystem Services International workshop on market-based policy instruments |
| Date: 13.03.2012 - 14.03.2012 Details: In the debate on policies for protecting biodiversity and providing ecosystem services there is a bias towards market-based policy instruments as the – at least ‘theoretically’ – most efficient solution. However, other aspects beyond efficiency are often neglected: How equitable are market-based instruments for ecosystem services and how well accepted are they in society? How do they perform in complex political-administrative systems? And how are the political struggles and discourses shaped which surround their introduction and implementation?
