Anne-Sofie Christensen,Martin Aranda,Bonnie J. McCay,H. Anne McLay,Carl Rova,Andrea Leme da Silva,Franziska Wolff +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a conceptual framework for evaluating social robustness and apply it to the analysis of four case studies of fisheries management, and they understand the robustness to be a combination of two factors that allow a management regime to adapt to a broad range of potential ecological, economic and political situations: acceptance by stakeholders and capacity for institutional learning.
