| Sunbelt XXX - June 29 to July 04, 2010 - Riva del Garda Fierecongressi | | Abstract : Integrated Network Analysis in Social-Ecological Studies – Methodological Approaches |
| Methodological challenges involved in using network analysis for social-ecological studies are addressed. A typology of four approaches to integrated analysis of systems consisting of interacting social and ecological entities (social-ecological systems) is proposed: (1) Analytical integration of separately examined social and ecological networks; (2) Analysis of the social network with ecological elements as node attributes, or vice versa ; (3) Integrated social-ecological network analysis; and (4) Translating interactions between social and ecological entities into two-mode networks, possibly complemented by one-mode social and/or ecological networks. The possibilities and constraints of these approaches are described and references given, when possible, to studies using these approaches in empirical research. Attention is paid to which research questions particular approaches are suitable for and how well the complexity of social-ecological systems is addressed. Approach number 4 is developed more in detail as it currently represents the best combination between feasability and complexity for practical case studies, and thus holds greatest promise for scientific break-through. |
