Item Open Access Forest and rangeland management in the intermountain west: emerging opportunities for collaboration(Colorado State University. Libraries, 2006-08) Swanson, Louis E., author; Cheng, Tony, author; Davis, Charles E., author; Fiege, Mark T., author; Colorado Institute of Public Policy, publisherForest and Rangeland Management uses current examples from the western U.S. to examine the principles of collaborative resource management. It finds evidence that groups can be innovative and effective, particularly when they take time to form a legitimate process and share authority. A good collaborative process can help federal land managers, state legislators and employees, landowners and community groups to fashion broadly supported land management policies.Item Open Access Tactics for negotiating agreements through collaborative decision-making processes(Colorado State University. Libraries, 2006-01) Lynn, Jewlya, author; Colorado Institute of Public Policy, publisherNegotiation has been used in many natural resource dialogues, including a wide range of watershed issues. According to the legislation authorizing the Interbasin Compact Charter, a framework for negotiation is an essential component of building a lasting model for addressing water disputes in Colorado (C.R.S. 37-75-105(3)a). A negotiation framework has many different shapes, drawing not only from the most traditional negotiation literature, but also from literature on mediation, facilitation, policy dialogues, consensus processes, decision-rules, and information and fact gathering processes. Collectively, this is a body of literature that addresses the need for collaborative decision-making processes to find solutions to disputes between multiple stakeholders. It identifies tactics for participants to navigate a conflict, move from exploration to the development of proposals, and eventually reach outcomes that benefit one or all parties.
