Abstract

This chapter analyzes whether the current policy for climate-smart agriculture meets the demands of climate justice and respects the rights of smallholders, and if not, how it should be amended. The study is based on a literature review and several interviews with climate-smart agriculture actors from diverse backgrounds: (1) consultant or practitioner, (2) farmer, (3) business or entrepreneur, (4) scientist. To examine the climate-smart agriculture concept and its implementation, the following ethical positions are mainly considered: (1) maximalist, (2) minimalist, (3) Pogge´s intermediate position, (4) Nussbaum's capability approach, (5) Kantian, (t) altruism. This study found that the current climate-smart agriculture approaches are not fairly implemented, due to the unjust sharing of benefits of income and burdens of emission reduction costs, among smallholders and big industries. According to the principles of climate justice, this sharing proportion should be equally distributed based on an individual's capacities and poverty should also be taken into consideration.

气候智慧型农业政策和发展中国家小农正义

本章分析当前的气候智慧型农业政策是否符合气候正义的要求并尊重小农的权利，如果不符合，则应如何修改。这项研究是基于文献综述和对来自不同背景的气候智能型农业行动者的几次采访:(1)顾问或从业者，(2)农民，(3)企业或企业家，(4)科学家。为了考察气候智慧型农业概念及其实施，主要考虑了以下伦理立场:(1)最大主义，(2)极简主义，(3)Pogge的中间立场，(4)Nussbaum的能力方法，(5)康德主义，(t)利他主义。本研究发现，由于小农和大企业之间不公平地分享收入收益和减排成本负担，目前的气候智能型农业方法没有得到公平实施。根据气候正义原则，这一共享比例应根据个人能力平均分配，还应考虑到贫困问题。
