Re-Structure

Re-Structure is concerned with institutional reform, collapse and renewal, including measures targeting systemic and structural changes. Institutions (including lack of them) (according to Young, 2002) can restrict local populations in their, possibly sustainable, customs (Roose & Panez, 2020), even if they have a long tradition (Gilbert, 2011). As a result, benefits (e.g., aesthetic benefits of coral reefs for tourism) and costs (reef bleaching from global warming affecting local subsistence fisheries) are not equally distributed, and processes of disadvantage are systematically institutionalised (e.g., Berbés-Blázquez et al., 2016; Ceauşu et al., 2019).
