Swedish term

förankringsrationalitet

Swedish to English Social Sciences Government / Politics
...taken from an article about policy development (in a collaboration between officials and residents) at the local government level. Word appears in two sentences:

1) Medborgarpanelen planerades och genomfördes genom en bestämd förankringsrationalitet, som innebar att det skapades en högst ojämlik maktrelation mellan å ena sidan tjänstemännen och å andra sidan de boende som bjudits in till dialogen och de som inte bjudits in, men som på sikt skulle engageras och integreras i det lokala samhällslivet.

2) Det var inte bara personer med utländsk bakgrund som sorterades ut enligt rådande förankringsrationalitet, utan det var de boendes erfarenheter som åsidosattes – i rak motsats till den officiella politikens explicita syfte.

Very grateful for any ideas/suggestions

Discussion

Non-ProZ.com Jan 7, 2006:
additional info What it seems to be about, is that 'politicians' want to 'f�rankra' policy development with 'the people'. The question is 'which people' they choose to talk to - the term 'f�rankringsrationalitet' then refers to the 'rationalitet' that guides them in this choice.
