These regions frequently face undesirable, persistent and self-reinforcing challenges, often conceptualized as traps. Through engagement with a panel of experts on mountainous regions, we examined whether the trap concept effectively explains the development challenges in European mou…

  • Private forest owners’ sense of landownership

The material collected was analyzed with mixed methods with respect to relational values as catalysts and consequences of SI. R…
