Comment légitimer l'accession au statut d'expert pour limiter les controverses : étude de cas en biodiversité
Environment in general, and even more so Wildlife management, are fields in which the need and the claim for expertise are both very strong and distributed. This is partly due to the intricate issues resulting from various scientific disciplines. The temptation to seek in science for an objective gu...

Environment in general, and even more so Wildlife management, are fields in which the need and the claim for expertise are both very strong and distributed. This is partly due to the intricate issues resulting from various scientific disciplines.

This is also a field of high interest of the population and on which it is fairly easy to have an opinion. There are therefore ideal conditions for much controversy on the subject.
