The case for policy-relevant conservation science
Drawing on the "evidence-based" (Sutherland et al. 2013) versus "evidence-informed" debate (Adams & Sandbrook 2013), which has become prominent in conservation science, I argue that science can be influential if it holds a dual reference (Lentsch & Weingart 2011) that contributes to the needs of policy makers whilst maintaining technical rigor. In line with such a strategy, conservation scienti...
متن کاملSOCIAL SCIENCE AND PUBLIC POLICY What is Socially Relevant Science?
Interest in the effect on society of scientific discoveries can be traced back to the beginnings of the modern sciences.

Affirmative answers to the question of the practical virtues of science helped the first generation of scientists—and of course present-day scien...
متن کاملConservation science and forest service policy for roadless areas.
Questions persist regarding whether the science of conservation biology can successfully affect environmental decision making. One of the most prominent fields of intersection between conservation science and environmental policy is public-lands debates in the United States. I reviewed the role of conservation science in the roadless-area policies of the U.S. Forest Service. Since 1971, the For...
متن کاملIs Marine Conservation Science Becoming Irrelevant to Policy Makers?
The use of science in policy-making has declined dramatically around the world. One of the most obvious examples of scientific neglect is the refusal of many U.S. politicians to accept anthropogenic climate change despite overwhelming scientific evidence to the contrary. While over 97% of scientists recognize the global threat posed by human climate forcing (Oreskes, 2004a; Doran and Zimmerman,...
متن کاملScience-Policy-Practice Interfaces: Emergent knowledge and monarch butterfly conservation
We study how knowledge is produced at the intersection of science, environmental policy and public engagement. Based on analysis of monarch butterfly conservation, we critically evaluate models of knowledge production. The monarch butterfly and its migration have engaged science and enchanted people for over a century, and current threats to monarchs catalyze debates and actions. This paper tra...
