摘要

环境服务付费(PES)已成为解决环境退化问题的一种流行方法。然而，关于其有效性的证据很少，而且相当复杂。PES不是万能的，但是在很多情况下，PES是一个很有前途的工具。然而，糟糕的PES设计导致仪器性能不佳。PES设计是一项复杂的任务;问题在于PES设计特性的一些细节。本文的目的是通过对PES设计的全面回顾，为学术界和实践者提供处理这种复杂性的指导。提出了关于决定PES是否是最佳方法以及在可选设计特征中进行选择的从业者指南。PES设计必须从对特定生态和社会经济背景的仔细理解开始。我们现在知道哪些设计特性最适合哪些环境。是时候将这些见解付诸实践了。

The Devil in the Detail: A Practical Guide on Designing Payments for Environmental Services

Payments for environmental services (PES) have become a popular approach to address environmental degradation. However, evidence on its effectiveness is scarce and rather mixed. PES is not a panacea, but there are many cases where PES can be a promising tool. Yet, poor PES design translates into poor performance of the instrument. PES design is a complex task; the devil is in the detail of a number of PES design features. The purpose of this paper is to provide guidance in dealing with this complexity through a comprehensive review of PES design that is accessible to both academics and practitioners. Practitioner guidelines on deciding whether PES is the best approach and for selecting among alternative design features are presented. PES design has to start from a careful understanding of the specific ecological and socio-economic context. We now know a lot about which design features are best suited to which context. It is time to put these insights into practice.

期刊介绍： Environmental and resource economics has become a broad topic making connections with many other subdisciplines in economics as well as the natural and physical sciences. It has also experience a significant growth in research such that the literature is exploding in terms of the number of topics addressed, the number of methodological approaches being applied and the sheer number of articles being written. Coupled with the high degree of specialization that characterizes modern academic research, this proliferation of topics and methodologies makes it impossible for anyone, even those who specialize in the subject, to keep up with developments in the field.
