Abstract

Collaborative governance has the potential to foster co-creative solutions to rural issues. Many rural areas have deteriorated due to rapid and encroaching urbanization and globalization. By building institutions to support and convey collaborative governance processes, rural areas can be revitalized and equipped with the ability to cope and evolve in the face of unexpected shocks and disturbances, they can be made robust. Concepts and arguments developed in a social-ecological systems framework are drawn on to flesh out a theoretical logic to aid understandings of how institutional design can enhance the robustness of a rural social-ecological system through fostering collaboration. A critical instance case study of a rural revitalization project undertaken at a traditional village in Hong Kong, Lai Chi Wo, allows for in-depth analysis of the relationship between intuitional design, collaborative governance and robustness. Through this case study, we show how institutions can be designed and built to foster collaborative processes and, hence, enhance the system's robustness. The demonstration of this logic extends theoretical understandings regarding the identification of mechanisms through which institutional variables can impact and condition collaborative processes and so outcomes. While demonstrated here in the case of rural revitalization, these findings contribute to wider understandings of how collaborative endeavors can be fostered and enhanced and how robustness in social-ecological systems can be better supported.
