Les modes de perception de la biodiversité par les acteurs et la régulation des usages de l’environnement. Une lecture par les représentations by Muriel Maillefert, Céline Merlin-Brogniart

Given these differentiated perceptions, biodiversity protection policies must be based on appropriate instruments.The notion of Payments for Environmental Services (PES), which often refers to bilateral relationships and market-based instruments appears as limited and inappropriate to stakeholders' expectations at the local level.…”
