Integrating knowledge, interests and values through modelling in participatory processes: dimensions of legitimacy
This paper examines two participatory environmental planning cases in which modelling played an important role. The cases occurred in Vermont. They provide contrasts in the use of technology to model future scenarios: magic markers and mylar for forest mapping as compared to computer modelling for watershed assessment. The paper describes how modelling and models were employed to integrate knowledge, interests and values in each case. It explores two dimensions of legitimacy, procedural and scientific expertise, in these modelling processes. It concludes with the implications of decision-making authority for legitimacy and the integration of knowledge and values.
