Contradictions in public policies on management of aquatic species and habitats, the case of policies for diadromous fish

Abstract

Contradictions in public policies for biodiversity conservation are inherent in the complexity of the issues concerned and the relationships between stakeholders. How can conflicts of interest be reconciled? How can collective acceptance of conservation goals be improved? Topics for discussion are drawn from the example of policies for diadromous fish.
