生物多样性的丧失是人类面临的最大环境挑战之一，但不幸的是，减少生物多样性丧失速度的努力迄今失败了。与此同时，这些努力往往导致不公正的社会后果，生活在指定保护区内或附近的人无法获得他们的领土和资源。在这本书中，作者认为，我们对生物多样性保护的方法需要更多地受到对社会正义问题的关注和理解。不公正可能是生物多样性丧失的驱动因素，也是保护努力的障碍。相反，对社会正义的追求可以成为寻找环境问题解决方案的强大动力。因此，这本书认为，追求社会公正的保护不仅在本质上是正确的事情，而且将有助于带来更大的成功。更具社会公正性的保护的论点最初是从概念上发展起来的，借鉴了环境正义的思想，其中包括对分配、程序和承认的关注。然后将其应用于一系列养护办法，包括惠益分享安排、综合养护和发展项目以及基于市场的办法，如可持续木材认证和生态系统服务付款计划。案例研究来自作者在卢旺达、乌干达、坦桑尼亚、老挝、玻利维亚、中国和印度的研究。
Loss of biodiversity is one of the great environmental challenges facing humanity but unfortunately efforts to reduce the rate of loss have so far failed. At the same time, these efforts have too often resulted in unjust social outcomes in which people living in or near to areas designated for conservation lose access to their territories and resources. In this book the author argues that our approach to biodiversity conservation needs to be more strongly informed by a concern for and understanding of social justice issues. Injustice can be a driver of biodiversity loss and a barrier to efforts at preservation. Conversely, the pursuit of social justice can be a strong motivation to find solutions to environmental problems. The book therefore argues that the pursuit of socially just conservation is not only intrinsically the right thing to do, but will also be instrumental in bringing about greater success. The argument for a more socially just conservation is initially developed conceptually, drawing upon ideas of environmental justice that incorporate concerns for distribution, procedure and recognition. It is then applied to a range of approaches to conservation including benefit sharing arrangements, integrated conservation and development projects and market-based approaches such as sustainable timber certification and payments for ecosystem services schemes. Case studies are drawn from the author's research in Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania, Laos, Bolivia, China and India.
