The present study shows that three conflict dimensions (institutional, competence-based and ideological) are managed through two strategies: ‘participation control’ tends to structure the access to the process; ‘common knowledge production’ through reasoning and discursive decision-making tends to emphasize the role of experts. The eclectic use of both strategies confirms the hybrid nature of the OMC and the permanent tension between its supposed post-regulatory nature and the progressive specialization and control of information that tend to exclude stakeholders and the large audience the process should mobilize.

Abstract
The present study shows that three conflict dimensions (institutional, competence-based and ideological) are managed through two strategies: ‘participation control’ tends to structure the access to the process; ‘common knowledge production’ through reasoning and discursive decision-making tends to emphasize the role of experts. The eclectic use of both strategies confirms the hybrid nature of the OMC and the permanent tension between its supposed post-regulatory nature and the progressive specialization and control of information that tend to exclude stakeholders and the large audience the process should mobilize.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
