森林砍伐和退化与一系列复杂的社会经济和政治因素有关。许多人认为,这些因素中最重要的是土地保有权和土地保有权保障。本文回顾了过去有关森林成果和土地保有权的文献,以更好地了解土地保有权形式、土地保有权保障和森林成果之间的广泛关系。从理论角度看,明确和有保障的森林保有权对林地既可能产生积极影响,也可能产生消极影响,这取决于政治和经济条件。我们审查了130多个具体土地保有权条件下森林成果的经验案例,发现土地保有权保障与森林砍伐减少有关,无论保有权形式如何。与私人、社区和公共土地相比,受保护的森林与更积极的森林成果有关。我们讨论了当前文献中关于森林砍伐和土地保有权的一致性和识别问题,并为政策制定者提供了未来研究和实施问题的建议。
Deforestation and degradation are tied to a complex array of socioeconomic and political factors. Many assume that among the most important of these factors is land tenure and land tenure security. This paper reviews past literature connecting forest outcomes and land tenure to better understand broad relationships between land tenure form, land tenure security and forest outcomes. From a theoretical perspective, clear and secure forest tenure can have either a positive or negative impact on forested land, depending on political and economic conditions. We review over 130 empirical cases of forest outcomes under specific land tenure conditions and find that land tenure security is associated with less deforestation, regardless of the form of tenure. Protected forests are associated with more positive forest outcomes relative to private, communal and public land. We discuss consistency and identification issues in the current literature around deforestation and land tenure, and provide suggestions for future studies and implementation issues for policymakers.
