III. '''Identification of boundary objects''': case studies of regional situation with future perspective (and hidden role of social capital) | |||
1. Case study writing and important aspects from analytical point of view | |||
IV. '''Hypothesis''': SD concept and regional strategies include three pillars and interrelationships: economic, environmental, and social. role of SC underestimated as this is mainly “process oriented” (consists in relationships between elements of the system, not product oriented etc.). SC has played a role in history and its destruction caused huge environmental and economic problems. SC is one of the driving forces of the development and should be paid attention accordingly. Should be shown in our case. | |||
Method of work: Specification of the research perspective – social capital – within the region (object of the study -> tackled as a system) and its development strategies; | |||
'''Research question''': How is the SC perspective manifested in the research area, is it supported within development strategies? | |||
1. Analysis of existing regional development principles (ZÚR) from SC perspective | |||
2. Analysis of potential regional development strategies from SC perspective based on case studies and SWOT analysis done by actors | |||
V. '''Analytical methods''', we are going to use – methodological introduction | |||
1. Case study writing (input by actors exploited, and how to supplement knowledge base) & analysis (how it works in the research, and what different viewpoints reveal) | |||
2. Interviews – goal: receive objective information on the situation critically assess info from other actors and reflect role of actor within the context of cooperation, public debate and simply regional situation | |||
3. SWOT – perspectives by different actors | |||

5. Actor analysis | |||
6. Mind mapping – stakeholder maps with relations between actors (different graphical expression) | |||
7. Interaction analysis – analysis of relationships and interactions in the mind map | |||
8. System analysis of the social relations (place is one of the elements of the system) | |||
• Structural | |||
• From the viewpoint of relations between elements and processes | |||
9. Reframing workshop: 3 perspectives applied on the case study and mind maps. Relevant projects and scenarios outlined. | |||
10. Scenario analysis – introductory steps | |||
