摘要

几十年来,跨国学者一直致力于理解为什么民主往往与森林损失增加有关,尽管理论表明完全相反的方向关系。最近,Sanford(2021)发现民主国家更接近的选举往往会增加森林损失。作者认为,这一结果是clientelism的结果,即有针对性地分配商品、服务、工作和金钱,以换取候选人的政治支持。然而,据我们所知,没有任何跨国研究考虑到较高水平的庇护主义是否与中低收入国家的森林损失增加有关。为了填补这一空白,我们使用两阶段工具变量回归模型分析了80个低收入和中等收入国家的数据。我们发现,在控制了各种假设解释的经济、政治和人口因素之后,更高水平的庇护主义与森林损失的增加相对应。

Clientelism and Forest loss in a Macro-Comparative perspective
Abstract For several decades, cross-national scholars have aimed to understand why democracy tends to be related to increased forest loss, despite theory suggesting the exact opposite directional relationship. Recently, Sanford (2021) finds that closer elections in democratic nations tend to increase forest loss. The author attributes this finding to be the result of clientelism or the targeted distribution of goods, services, jobs, and money in exchange for the political support of a candidate. However, we are not aware of any cross-national research that considers if higher levels of clientelism are related to increased forest loss in low- and middle-income nations. To fill this gap, we analyze data for 80 low- and middle-income nations using a two-stage instrumental variable regression model. We find that higher levels of clientelism correspond with increased forest loss after controlling for various economic, political, and demographic factors hypothesized to explain it.
