减少偷猎的速度、程度和负面影响是包括保护工作者和越来越多的执法机构在内的各种利益攸关方的优先事项。本文的目的是探讨当地利益相关者的偷猎规则的看法,以及遵守和不遵守的动机,在纳米比亚使用焦点小组和访谈。我们发现,参与者对监管和规范模型解释遵守野生动物规则的动机的能力的看法没有差异;然而,我们发现基于道德和合法性的规范模型解释遵守的能力存在差异。与会者确定了偷猎的各种动机;一些动机超出了对偷猎的生存(“煮锅”)和经济(“口袋书”)解释。我们建议犯罪学界利用机会与环保主义者和其他人合作,探索偷猎的各个方面,以减少风险和环境损害,最大限度地减少破坏规则的保护。
Reducing the rate, extent, and negative impacts associated with poaching is a priority for diverse stakeholders including conservation practitioners and, increasingly, law enforcement agencies. The purpose of this paper is to explore local stakeholders' perceptions of poaching rules, and motivations for compliance and noncompliance, using focus groups and interviews in Namibia. We found no difference between participants' perception of the ability of regulatory and normative models to explain motivations to comply with wildlife rules; however, we found differences in the ability of moral and legitimacy-based normative models to explain compliance. Participants identified a diversity of motivations to poach; a number of motivations went beyond subsistence ("cooking pot") and economic ("pocket book") explanations of poaching. We suggest the criminological community capitalize on opportunities to collaborate with conservationists and others on exploring the various dimensions of poaching in order to reduce risks and environmental harm by minimizing rule breaking in conservation.
