The role of value conflicts in the food-energy-water nexus sectors in Germany
The role of value conflicts in the food-energy-water nexus sectors in Germany
The SDGs incorporate a holistic perspective that aims at achieving the goals in a coherent manner. However, trade-offs between the different goals exist that cannot be addressed by isolated policies.

520 | |a The SDGs incorporate a holistic perspective that aims at achieving the goals in a coherent manner. However, trade-offs between the different goals exist that cannot be addressed by isolated policies. With regard to the management of natural resources, such as water, energy, and land, the nexus concept has been developed which focuses on the interrelations among these resources and thus touches upon various SGDs. Even if Germany in 2016 already transferred the SDG structure to its sustainable development strategy a coherent management of the nexus sectors is still missing. This paper shows that existing problems can result from different, sometimes even conflicting underlying values. Values are defined as normative guiding principles that are shared by a society and generally hold important. We analyze underlying values of related policy fields in Germany by means of a computer-assisted qualitative document analysis. The results reveal that sustainable development is, in fact, promoted as the guiding principle for policy-making. However, in many policy processes it falls short or is treated equally to other underlying values. In energy policy values of security of supply, environmental sustainability, and economic performance are important. These also apply for agricultural policy, along with quality and health issues. In the field of water policy values, such as the protection of water resources and safe drinking water can be found. It becomes apparent that some values (e.g. environmental protection and health) are more compatible with the guiding principle of sustainable development than others (e.g. economic performance). Therefore, underlying value conflicts need to be analyzed and addressed in order to develop coherent and coordinated policies. | ||
