Abstract

A series of discourse have constructed a social reality underlining the fact that Indonesian natural forestryexperienced a serious negative stigma. The stigma appeared due to its deforestation and forest degradation rate, likely un-ending multi-dimentional conflitcs, the increase of natural forest threat, the decrease of natural forest roles, and function in terms of social, economic and environment. This was addressed mainly to those of forestry utilization policies. This research has a look to analyse forestry utilization policies as an essential point, especially with regard to the discourse trend and to the frame of forestry stakeholder minds involving in the discourse which was focused on key policy miles stone and its implementation. It is considered to be essential since after much efforts of wiping the stigma off seemed to be unsuccesfully. The results indicated that there was a problem on stakeholders’ minds frame, which was considered to be a stagnant, especially on positioning and understanding forest utilization and sustainability. To cope with such a problem, it would need to improve at least four things, i.e: the link of science/knowledge-skills-policy, political interest, public participation, and actor networks. Improving the fourth could be an essential key for having another three.

Abstract

This article is a conceptual review on Rova et. al. (2001) “When Regulation Fails: Vendace Fishery in the Gulf of Bothnia”. A relevant core message and its implication was drawn considered as a useful lesson learnt, especially for our future option on direction of natural resources management (NRM) reform, including that on forestry. There is a strong relationship between characteristic of natural resources, social conditions of its stakeholders and the institutional structure of its management. The institutional arrangement need to seriously taking into account this essential relationship; including efforts to guarantee that all resiliencies (institutional, managerial, social and ecological) are materialized. These resiliencies could be existed and mutually powerful if and only if the authority of the NRM was not centralized and was based on the NR characteristics by themselves. Need a serious institutional arrangement that is not just for having a restructured institution, but also have to materialize all the resiliencies and provide the consequences of having options for collective actions toward joint outcomes: the sustainability of the NRM. This is a core message actually implying to where the future NRM reform to be directed, especially from institution point of view.

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the impact of non-forestry policy, especially energy related macro policy decisions, on poverty and use levels of natural resources. As core indicators, this analysis employs ‘number of households below the poverty line’ and ‘area of deforestation’. Impacts are analyzed in an agent-based simulation model for 6 districts of East Kalimantan, one of the Indonesian natural-resource rich provinces on the Island of Borneo. Simulation results partly suggest that the policy decision of June 2008-politically known as decreasing fuel price-had nearly no impact on deforestation amplifying that the dominating driver of deforestation is large scale logging and mining operations, as well as potentially illegal activities. While, it reduced the number of poor people-those mostly living within and around forest area-by about 5.4%. Due to seasonal income, this policy-related impact is likely to be periodically lower. During the harvest related period, many households are able to lift their income above the poverty line. This seasonal fluctuation in poverty could help optimize public funding by spreading it over longer periods and by pausing direct transfers during such natural periods of poverty reduction. There is no significant implication for forestry or forest management since the model could only deal with small scale forestry.
