摘要

联合森林管理（JFM）是一项旨在管理印度森林并在社会经济上发展森林边缘社区的计划。对西孟加拉邦Jungle Mahals地区的一些森林边缘村庄进行了JFM研究。该研究的主要目的是了解JFM目前在这些村庄的运作情况。据透露，当地林业部门鼓励村民使用、管理、保护和规范森林及其产品。然而，村民们对林业部门有一些未满足的要求。此外，他们在村庄内相互合作，但也在保护森林和获取森林资源的问题上与邻近村民发生冲突。该文件建议，当地林业部门应与当地社区协商解决此类冲突，并使JFM计划更有效地运作。

Forests of Cooperation and Conflict: A Study on Joint Forest Management in Jungle Mahals, India

Joint Forest Management (JFM) is a programme that aims to manage the forests of India and to socio-economically develop the forest-fringe communities. A study on JFM was conducted in some forest-fringe villages of Jungle Mahals region of West Bengal. The main objective of the study was to see how JFM is functioning at present in those villages. It is revealed that the local forest department encourages the villagers to use, manage, protect and regulate the forest and its products. However, the villagers have some unfulfilled demands with the forest department. Furthermore, they cooperate with each other within the village but also are engaged in conflict with neighbouring villagers on the matter of the protection of forest and to access its resources. The paper suggests that the local forest department should negotiate with the local communities to resolve such conflicts and to make the JFM programme work more efficiently.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Human Ecology publishes empirical and theoretical research, short notes and brief communications probing the interface between human beings and their environment. The journal also has a section dedicated to reviews. The contributions combine ideas and methods from several disciplines, including, but not confined to, physical anthropology, health awareness, sustainability and development, sociology, forestry, psychology and agriculture. The journal also accepts research that focuses on the well-being of those with physical or mental challenges, the importance of food safety, measures taken to improve public health, and the sociological aspect of human ecology.
