Unravelling Persistent Problems to Transformative Marine Governance

Abstract: Coasts are dynamic socio-ecological systems, subject to increasing anthropogenic pressures that present complex challenges for the design of effective coastal and marine governance systems. There are many contributing factors to the unsustainability of the marine environment, including weak governance arrangements. Typically, the management of coastal and marine ecosystems is undertaken in a fragmented way, with responsibilities dispersed across a number of bodies. 'Integrated management' is often proposed in … Show more

“…a rationality that is limited by time, knowledge and cognitive boundaries); and b) focuses on selecting actions that are good enough to suit decision-makers' purposes (satisficing) but that are not necessarily optimal. For example, in the case of coastal management in Ireland, pathdependent policy layering within successive programmes designed to address fragmented management has failed to radically transform governance (Kelly, Ellis, & Flannery, 2019).…”

“…The marine problem is truly reflective of Rittle and Webber's (1973) 'wicked issue' and more recently to what Kelly et al (2019) refer to as 'persistent problems'. Peel and Lloyd (2004) could not have predicted the evolution of MSP that has occurred over the last 15 years.…”

“…The EU Maritime Spatial Planning Directive (European Commission 2014) has stipulated that member States are 'responsible and competent' in their approach to developing national plans. However, lacking specific guidance from the EC on how MSP systems should be developed and implemented, the MSP Directive has resulted in numerous interpretations that have led to new policies, organisations, legislation, and requirements for new multi-disciplinary resources across member states that are not necessarily consistent (Kelly, Ellis, and Flannery 2019).…”
