چکیده

اعتماد، بارها به عنوان مؤلفه کلیدی که حکمرانی سازگار و نظام‌های تصمیم‌گیری مشارکتی را حمایت می‌کند، شناخته شده است. در این تحقیق ارزیابی اعتماد مبتنی بر نظام مدیریت مشارکتی با بررسی ساختار روابط اجتماعی بهره‌برداران محلی مرتع در قالب شبکه اجتماعی موجود انجام گرفته است. راهبرد مورد استفاده برای جمع‌آوری سنجه‌های رابطه، روش شبکه کامل و اطلاعات تحقیق از طریق مصاحبه و پرسشنامه تحلیل شبکه‌ای جمع‌آوری گردید. شاخص‌های تراکم، اندازه، دوسویگی پیوند، تمرکز و مفاهیم نقاط برشی و حفره‌های ساختاری در این تحقیق مورد تحلیل قرارگرفت. نتایج نشان می‌دهد در شبکه اعتماد (با تراکم پایین و انسجام ضعیف)، دسترسی به اطلاعات در داخل گروه‌های محلی نسبت به روابط بین گروهی از همگنی بیشتری برخوردار است و در سطح کلان پایداری شبکه ضعیف به دست آمد. وجود حفره‌های ساختاری و حضور کم تعداد رابطان مهم در شبکه نیز باعث شده تا حفظ، توسعه ارتباطات و انتقال اطلاعات بین گروه‌های مختلف با مشکل روبه‌رو شود (کاهش پویایی شبکه). در بین گروه‌های محلی، پخش اعتماد وضعیت ضعیف‌تری نسبت به دریافت اعتماد دارد و این نتیجه تمرکز بالا در پیوندهای بیرونی نسبت به پیوندهای درونی است. سیستم مدیریت مشارکتی محلی مرتع در استان یزد به منظور دستیابی به پویایی و پایداری لازم است تا به سمت اتخاذ راهکارهایی جهت تقویت اعتماد اجتماعی به عنوان کلید حل ضعف پیش‌آمده برآید.

چکیده [English]

Trust has been identified repeatedly as a key component that supports adaptive governance and collaborative decision-making systems. In this study, the evaluation of trust based on participatory management system was conducted by examining the structure of social relations of local livestock users in the form of an existing social network. The strategies used to collect relationship metrics, complete network method and research information were collected through interview and network analysis questionnaire. The indices of density, size, centrality, degree of centralization, and concepts of cut points and structural holes were analyzed in this study. The results show that access to the information within local groups is more homogeneous than intergroup relationships in low density and low cohesion trust networks and at the macro level the network stability is weak (reduction of network dynamics). The existence of structural holes and the low number of important interfaces in the network have also made it difficult to maintain and develop communication and transfer information between different groups. Among local groups, the trust distribution is weaker than receiving trust. This is the result of a higher focus on external centralization than internal centralization. In order to achieve dynamics and stability, it is necessary that the local livestock participatory management system in Yazd Province  adopt strategies to enhance social trust as a key to resolving the deficiency.
