The good, the bad, and the hands-on: constructs of public participation, anglers, and lay management of water environments (2012)
Journal Article
Eden, S., & Bear, C. (2012). The good, the bad, and the hands-on: constructs of public participation, anglers, and lay management of water environments. Environment & planning. A, 44(5), 1200-1218 . https://doi.org/10.1068/a4495

We use a qualitative study of recreational anglers in northern England to explore constructions of ‘the public' in environmental management. We examine good and bad constructs of ‘the public' and show how they emphasise knowledge over practice. We ar...
