ABSTRACT

In addition to wildlife conservation, Community-Based Natural Resource Management (CBNRM) programmes aim to foster regional development. To achieve this, communal areas couple to tourism Global Production Networks (GPN). In this paper, we conceptualise Namibian communal Conservancies as Social-Ecological Systems (SES) and combine the SES and GPN approaches to benefit from the SESF's explanatory power for ecological and social relationships at a local level as well as from the GPN grasp of global linkages. We analyse the impact of trophy hunting on three communal conservancies in Namibia: King Nehale, Nyae Nyae, and Ehi-Rovipuka. Although wildlife numbers in these conservancies have increased, positive economic impacts are often insufficient, unevenly distributed across regions, and parts of the population are excluded. At the same time, findings indicate that in some areas, where revenues are larger and population is smaller, benefits from hunting can be significant and can contribute to SES sustainability.

摘要

除了野生动植物保护，基于社区的自然资源管理（CBNRM）计划旨在促进区域发展。为了实现这一目标，公共区域与旅游业全球生产网络（GPN）相结合。在本文中，我们将纳米比亚的社区共同体概念化为社会生态系统（SES），并结合了SES和GPN方法，以从SESF在地方层面对生态和社会关系的解释力以及GPN对全球联系的把握中受益。我们分析了奖杯狩猎对纳米比亚三个社区的影响：内哈勒国王，尼亚耶·聂耶和埃希·罗维普卡。尽管这些保护区中的野生动植物数量有所增加，但对经济的正面影响通常不足，分布在各地区的分布不均，部分人口被排除在外。同时，
