What conflicts possible: A new social forestry partnership policy in a National Park in Indonesia

Abstract

Abstract Partnership conservation is in the early stage implementation in Indonesia, which has a formal mission on reducing tenurial land conflict in conservation areas. Therefore, the pendulum analysis leads us to predict their future conflicts’ form to see how existing tenure conflict is changed and transform. We deeply observe a case in a park in Indonesia that implements these experimental schemes by using three dimensions of conflict, such as substantial, procedural, and psychological. The results show that some informal tenurial arrangement could not be transformed into the formal’s scheme. From this departure, we predict conflict was transformed into the relation with the park’s management on fulfilling the formal goals that is still trapped with the previous land tenure conflict. The land distribution and management of partnership arrangement is also can be a source of possible conflict in the future.
