Based on a vast amount of research and detailed case-studies in Brazil, Central America, Nepal and Tanzania as well as several papers dealing with wider themes and regions, this book argues that most current discussions of increased rates of deforestation and perceived accompanying environmental crises are overly simplistic. Institutional reforms and policy measures that have been undertaken in developing countries usually failed to protect either the forests or people‘s livelihoods. Technical solutions to deforestation are only one element in what are essentially political questions. The central issue is not how to halt deforestation but rather how to manage forest areas and natural resources in order to meet social goals on a more equitable and sustainable basis. Conventional wisdom that attributes deforestation primarily to peasant ignorance and population growth is questioned as are other single factor explanations such as market and policy failures. | 出版日期 | Book 1995 | 关键词 | environment; Institution; interaction; Nation; Policy; population; reforms | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/9780230375802 | isbn_ebook | 978-0-230-37580-2Series ISSN 2662-2483 Series E-ISSN 2662-2491 | issn_series | 2662-2483 | copyright | Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Macmillan Publishers Limited 1995 |
