Increasingly global climate change governance uses market-based mechanisms to offer forest users financial incentives to maintain forest carbon in the frontiers of Southeast Asia. At the same time, these forest landscapes are rapidly being converted for ‘boom crop’ production such as oil palm and rubber. However, little is known about how carbon governance intersects with such monocropping to affect local livelihoods, property rights and social relations. This project examines how the global market-driven approach, REDD+ (Reduced Emissions from Environmental Degradation and Deforestation+), governs forest carbon vis-à-vis commodity production, how this impacts rural livelihoods, and influences the viability of climate change governance.

全球气候变化治理越来越多地使用以市场为基础的机制，向森林使用者提供财政奖励，以维持东南亚边境的森林碳。与此同时，这些森林景观正在迅速被转化为油棕榈树和橡胶等“繁荣作物”的生产。然而，关于碳治理如何与这种单一种植相交叉，从而影响当地的生计、财产权和社会关系，人们知之甚少。该项目审查了全球市场驱动的方法REDD+(减少环境退化和毁林排放+)如何管理森林碳相对于商品生产，这如何影响农村生计，并影响气候变化治理的可行性。
