当地的支持对于保护计划的长期性至关重要。文献表明,对生态效益、社会影响和良好治理的看法将影响当地对保护的支持程度。本文利用对地中海6个国家11个海洋保护区的小规模渔民的调查数据来检验这些关系。该调查询问了小规模渔民对保护的看法和支持。我们构建了三类感知——生态有效性、社会影响和良好治理——的综合得分,并使用有序回归模型测试了与支持水平的关系。虽然这三个因素都与对保护的支持呈正相关,但对良好治理和社会影响的看法更能预测支持的增加。这些发现表明,在维持当地对自然保护的支持方面,采用良好的治理过程和管理社会影响可能比生态效益更重要。
Local support is important for the longevity of conservation initiatives. The literature suggests that perceptions of ecological effectiveness, social impacts, and good governance will influence levels of local support for conservation. This paper examines these relationships using data from a survey of small-scale fishermen in 11 marine protected areas from six countries in the Mediterranean Sea. The survey queried small-scale fishermen regarding perceptions and support for conservation. We constructed composite scores for three categories of perceptions-ecological effectiveness, social impacts, and good governance-and tested the relationship with levels of support using ordinal regression models. While all three factors were positively correlated with support for conservation, perceptions of good governance and social impacts were stronger predictors of increasing support. These findings suggest that employing good governance processes and managing social impacts may be more important than ecological effectiveness for maintaining local support for conservation.
