摘要

利用生态不平等交换理论，我们评估了周边国家对印度的棕榈油出口是否与周边国家在小腐败和大腐败的背景下增加的森林损失有关，这是以前从未做过的。我们继续在之前的跨国研究的基础上，研究从周边国家到印度的棕榈出口的生态不平等交换是否与小腐败和大腐败相互作用。我们对78个周边国家的样本使用普通最小二乘回归检验了这一假设，发现棕榈油出口到印度与周边国家的森林损失更多有关，这些国家的小腐败和大腐败程度更高，而不是更低。最后，我们讨论了从我们的研究结果得出的理论、方法和政策含义。

Corruption and Palm Oil in a Cross-National Perspective: How India Contributes to Forest Loss in Peripheral Nations

Drawing on the ecologically unequal exchange theory, we assess whether palm oil exports from peripheral nations to India are related to increased forest loss in the peripheral nations in the context of petty and grand corruption, which has not been done before. We go on to build upon previous cross-national work by examining if petty and grand corruption interacts with the ecologically unequal exchange of palm exports from peripheral nations to India. We test this hypothesis using ordinary least squares regression for a sample of 78 peripheral nations and find that palm oil exports to India are related to more forest loss in peripheral nations with higher rather than lower levels of petty and grand corruption. We conclude by discussing the theoretical, methodological and policy implications that follow from our findings.

期刊介绍： The Journal of South Asian Development (JSAD) publishes original research papers and reviews of books relating to all facets of development in South Asia. Research papers are usually between 8000 and 12000 words in length and typically combine theory with empirical analysis of historical and contemporary issues and events. All papers are peer reviewed. While the JSAD is primarily a social science journal, it considers papers from other disciplines that deal with development issues. Geographically, the JSAD"s coverage is confined to the South Asian region, which includes India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Maldives and Afghanistan.
