1985 年，Michael Soule 问道：“什么是保护生物学？” 25 年后，我们重新审视这个问题，并根据全球保护环境的变化提出了一套修订后的核心原则。最值得注意的是，科学家们现在普遍承认，我们生活在一个由人类主导的世界，因此，保护的科学基础必须包括考虑人类的作用。当今的保护科学将保护生物学纳入更广泛的跨学科领域，明确认识到社会和自然系统的紧密耦合。新出现的优先事项包括在工作环境中追求保护、重建公众支持、与企业部门合作以及更好地关注人权和公平。我们认为，在保护方面，必须推行同时最大限度地保护生物多样性和改善人类福祉的战略。
In 1985, Michael Soule asked, "What is conservation biology?" We revisit this question more than 25 years later and offer a revised set of core principles in light of the changed global context for conservation. Most notably, scientists now widely acknowledge that we live in a world dominated by humans, and therefore, the scientific underpinnings of conservation must include a consideration of the role of humans. Today's conservation science incorporates conservation biology into a broader interdisciplinary field that explicitly recognizes the tight coupling of social and natural systems. Emerging priorities include pursuing conservation within working landscapes, rebuilding public support, working with the corporate sector, and paying better attention to human rights and equity. We argue that in conservation, strategies must be promoted that simultaneously maximize the preservation of biodiversity and the improvement of human well-being.
