CONFLICTS
It exists as a latent rather than manifest characteristic of society. A conflict of interest or power is a situation in which a person or organization is involved in multiple interests, financial or otherwise, and serving one interest could involve working against another. Typically, this relates to situations in which the personal interest of an individual or organization might adversely affect a duty owed to make decisions for the benefit of a third party.

Theory reflection
We have seen so far that ‘democracy’ is a complex concept including at least three different sets of values drawing in different directions. Self-determination focuses on the promotion of free scope for autonomous individuals. Codetermination demands equal consideration or access to infuence on common decisions. Respect for argument stresses the need to justify wishes and requests with reasons one expects to be acceptable to all. The frst part of the Demorcy is the quest for democracy, followed by various methods that may be applied in order to make landscape decisions more democratic. We used this Method as a means of involving stakeholders in the democratic process of defning goals and objectives in local landscapes.
