本文批判性地审视了印度尼西亚东部村庄领导参与非政府组织推动的参与性保护计划的情况。它探讨了该计划的实施如何加强占主导地位的传统社会群体的领导合法性。传统领导人确保按照特定规范进行分配，并在组织村庄治理时维护对自然资源的特定利益和要求。传统群体之外的村民尽管是重要的利益相关者，但在村庄治理中仍然处于边缘地位。调查结果揭示了领导人和村民之间的复杂关系，这些关系受到权力秩序和文化历史的强烈影响，这影响了外围群体参与的方式和程度。该案例研究的结论是，村领导可以形成有效的途径来实现保护成果。然而，由于他们专注于维护领导层的合法性，他们可能无法充分解决社区内部动态的紧张局势，从而危及长期结果。共同管理合作伙伴可以在调整管理和促进更具包容性的治理流程方面发挥重要作用。
This article critically examines engagements of village leaders in an NGO-facilitated participatory conservation program in eastern Indonesia. It explores how the program’s implementation strengthened leadership legitimacy of a dominant customary social group. Customary leaders ensured distribution according to particular norms, and in organizing village governance upheld specific interests and claims over natural resources. Villagers outside of the customary group remained marginalized in village governance, despite being important stakeholders. Findings reveal complex relationships between leaders and villagers that were strongly framed by orders of power and cultural history, which influenced how and to what extent peripheral groups participated. The case study concludes that village leaders can form effective avenues to deliver on conservation outcomes. However, in their preoccupation with maintaining leadership legitimacy, they may inadequately address dynamic intra-community tensions that could jeopardize long-term outcomes. Co-management partners can play significant roles in adapting management and prompting more inclusive governance processes.
