Maktintressematris

Maktintressematris refers to a tool used in political science and public administration to analyze the influence and interests of various stakeholders in a particular issue or decision-making process. The term is a portmanteau of "makt" (power), "intresse" (interest), and "matris" (matrix), suggesting a grid-like structure that maps these two dimensions.

The matrix typically plots stakeholders based on their level of power and the strength of their interest in the issue. Stakeholders with high power and high interest are often considered key players whose support or opposition can significantly impact outcomes. Those with high power but low interest may need to be monitored or managed carefully, while those with low power but high interest might require specific strategies to ensure their voices are heard or their concerns addressed. Stakeholders with low power and low interest are generally of less immediate concern.

By visualizing these relationships, policymakers and analysts can better understand the dynamics at play, anticipate potential conflicts or alliances, and develop more effective strategies for engagement and communication. The maktintressematris helps in identifying who to consult, who to inform, and who to actively involve in the decision-making process. It is a practical tool for navigating complex political landscapes and facilitating more inclusive and informed policy development.
