Despite the emergence and acceptance of collaboration within and across a variety of sectors, including government, industry, and the environmental community, little critical research has contributed to our understanding of how effective and appropriate collaboration is as an alternative to traditional ‘command and control,’ protest, or confrontational approaches to environmental protection and sustainability (Harrison, 1999). In a review of collaborative partnerships amongst environmental non-government organisations (NGOs), businesses, and other entities, Murphy and Bendell (1997) claimed: “In most of the partnerships described ... almost no attempt was made to develop systems to evaluate the partnership’s direct contributions to the achievement of environmental goals” (p. 229). In practice, some of the shortcomings resulting from collaboration to address environmental problems have generated harsh criticisms (Currah, 2000).

Hart and Milstein (1999) equate the process to that of Joseph Schumpeter’ s (1934) concept of `creative destruction’, defined as revolutionary changes that simultaneously destroy the established economic system from within and create new markets, industries, and organisational relationships. In the environmental arena, leapfrogging over existing unsustainable technologies requires visionary entrepreneurship from `maverick’ firms who potentially can unseat established firms through innovations that create new sustainable technologies, markets, and industrial structure. Creative destruction is inherently threatening to incumbent firms who are likely to resist radical technological changes and act in ways to preserve their market positions and profits.

An unexpected citizen uprising halted Utah’s first commercial wind power project in 2006. How a swift win-win resolution was reached provides insights on how entrepreneurs, elected officials, citizens and advocates can address community resistance constructively and build support for nearby wind energy development. A typology of common citizen concerns about nearby wind farms emerging from the case is presented with action items for addressing each concern effectively. ed.stafford@usu.edu

In this article, the authors demonstrate this point through a genealogy and textual analysis of the Ricelands Habitat Partnership (RHP), an eco-collaboration between the rice industry and environmental advocates in California’s Sacramento Valley. Articulated here as a story of enemies becoming
