Peatland fires and the impact of transboundary haze are often intertwined with socio‐environmental externalities of neoliberal forest governance and overlapping systems of resource property rights in Indonesia. New peatland governance strategies are emerging to address fires and haze by reorganising peatland management using a more ecologically relevant scale that territorialises peatland according to its hydrological characteristics. Employing the concept of the eco‐scalar fix, this paper interrogates rescaling peatland governance as a strategy to address the socio‐ecological crisis associated with the conversion of peatland into mono‐agricultural land. However, rescaling peatland governance entails the risk of merely displacing socio‐environmental crises to areas considered less ecologically important rather than addressing them. Drawing on a case study of a peatland restoration in Riau, Indonesia, this paper shows how emerging hybrid forms of peatland governance can address the environmental externalities that have unintentionally been created. This hybrid form of peatland governance has pressured actors across multiple types of property to rework the ways that environmental commons are controlled and accessed.

修复易燃森林：印度尼西亚泥炭地治理和恢复的标度政治

泥炭地火灾和越境雾霾的影响通常与新自由主义森林治理的社会环境外部性以及印度尼西亚资源产权制度的重叠交织在一起。新的泥炭地治理策略正在出现，以通过使用更具生态相关性的规模重组泥炭地管理来解决火灾和雾霾，该规模根据泥炭地的水文特征对其进行领土划分。本文采用生态标量修复的概念，对泥炭地治理的重新调整提出质疑，以此作为解决与将泥炭地转变为单一农业用地有关的社会生态危机的策略。但是，改变泥炭地治理规模带来的风险是，仅将社会环境危机转移到生态重要性较低的地区，而不是解决这些危机。本文以印度尼西亚廖内的一个泥炭地恢复案例研究为基础，显示了新兴的泥炭地治理混合形式如何解决无意中造成的环境外部性。泥炭地治理的这种混合形式已经迫使参与者跨越多种类型的财产，以重塑控制和利用环境公地的方式。
