Abstract

The utilization of peatland is one of the important issues in Indonesian political economy. One of the pros and cons regarding the argument of peatland management is the problem of ecology, which refers to the involvement of actors in its policy formulation and implementation. Research found that extensive degradation of Indonesia peatlands by deforestation, drainage and recurrent fires causes the release of huge amounts of peat soil carbon into the atmosphere. This article aims to answer two research questions. First is related to problems arise from the management of peatland based on ecological, economic, and socialcultural perspective. Second is related to the interests of actors in the management of peatland in Indonesia. As a result, there are several numbers of problems that appeared, due to the lack of understanding peatland management, such as environmental damage, labor exploitation, policy ambiguity. There are paradoxes in government policies pertaining to peatland management, as its implementation bears massive impact on the industry which consequently influences the production process. Furthermore, numerous actors also involved in this issue and policy accommodating the interests of each actor is a necessity.
应对印尼泥炭地和油棕管理中的政策悖论和行动者利益
泥炭地的利用是印尼政治经济的重要问题之一。泥炭地管理的利弊之一是生态问题,这是指行为者参与其政策制定和实施。研究发现,印度尼西亚泥炭地因森林砍伐、排水和经常性火灾而大面积退化,导致大量泥炭土碳释放到大气中。本文旨在回答两个研究问题。一是基于生态、经济和社会文化视角的泥炭地管理问题。第二是与印度尼西亚泥炭地管理行为者的利益有关。结果,由于对泥炭地管理认识不足,出现了环境破坏、劳动剥削、政策模糊等问题。有关泥炭地管理的政府政策自相矛盾,因为其实施对工业产生巨大影响,从而影响到生产过程。此外,这个问题还涉及许多行为者,政策必须照顾到每个行为者的利益。
