  abstract  = {Questions about park-people relationships and the understanding and handling of the conflicts that may result from the creation and management of national parks in the surrounding area are prerequisites for both successful park management and sustainable rural tourism development. This paper analyzes the roles that research may play in relation to park-people relationships in the context of the two oldest German national parks located in Bavaria. The different fields of action of national parks are used to identify the potential for conflict, using detailed case studies from the Bavarian Forest and Berchtesgaden National Parks using quantitative population surveys carried out in 2018. The overall attitude towards both national parks is overwhelmingly positive, with trust towards park administrations and the perceived economic benefits from rural tourism being the attitudes most strongly correlated to the overall level of park-people relationships. Nevertheless, some points of contention still exist, like the ecological integrity approach towards strict nature conservation and related landscape changes (e.g., deadwood cover). A comparison over time shows in both cases that the spatial proximity to the protected area negatively influences people's attitudes towards the parks, but less so than in the past. Recommendations for national park management include communicating proactively and with greater transparency with locals and decision-makers, to identify conflicts earlier and, where possible, to eliminate them. Furthermore, developing a standardized method to monitor park-people relationships in Germany is a must and would benefit integrated approaches in research and management based on conservation social science.},

  abstract  = {Nationalparks sind das {\"a}lteste und bekannteste fl{\"a}chenbezogene Naturschutzinstrument weltweit. F{\"u}r den Erhalt einer nachhaltigen Lebensgrundlage und die Entwicklung der Biodiversit{\"a}t sowie f{\"u}r mehr Naturdynamik in der Landschaft haben sie eine sehr große Bedeutung, auch in unseren Breiten. Dennoch ist die Einstellung zu Nationalparks von Seiten der unmittelbaren Anwohner nicht immer unproblematisch. Entsprechend versucht die vorliegende wissenschaftliche Analyse neue Erkenntnisse bez{\"u}glich der Akzeptanz der Nationalparks Bayerischer Wald und Berchtesgaden, den {\"a}ltesten Deutschlands, aufzuzeigen. Empirische Grundlagen f{\"u}r diese Studie sind eine bayernweite Online-Befragung, qualitative Experteninterviews und aufw{\"a}ndige repr{\"a}sentative schriftliche Befragungen in den Nationalpark-Landkreisen Regen und Freyung-Grafenau bzw. Berchtesgadener Land im Jahr 2018. Auch die zeitliche Entwicklung der Akzeptanz wird auf Basis der Ergebnisse von Vorg{\"a}ngerstudien, soweit m{\"o}glich, ber{\"u}cksichtigt. Dabei sind es {\"o}konomische, emotionale, interpersonelle, soziokulturelle und nicht zuletzt f{\"u}r Geographen besonders interessante raumzeitliche Pr{\"a}diktoren der Akzeptanz beider Nationalparks, die im Fokus der Untersuchungen stehen.},
