Nature Conservation in a Frontier Region of Java during the Colonial and Early Post-Colonial Periods
Given the changing environmental realities under colonial rule, Java was believed to have come close to a time of ecological crisis. Drawing upon a number of historical sources, this paper examines the development of nature conservation in a frontier region of Java called the Besuki Residency. It is...

Drawing upon a number of historical sources, this paper examines the development of nature conservation in a frontier region of Java called the Besuki Residency.

The challenges for nature conservation were not only due to the continuing contests over resources between the state and the people, but also to internal issues within the government. Up until around 1970 nature conservation remained very much state-centred and with a strong international thrust, rather than relying on popular support, and the primary problems were mostly encountered in the enforcement of the laws, rather than in the absence of a legal framework. The problems existing in the implementation of nature conservation both during the colonial and post-colonial periods essentially remained very much the same. Compte tenu de l’évolution des réalités environnementales à l’époque coloniale, Java aurait été proche d’une période de crise écologique. S’appuyant sur un certain nombre de sources historiques, cet article examine l’évolution de la protection de la nature dans une région périphérique de Java, la Résidence de Besuki. Il y est suggéré que la préservation de la nature dans la région reflétait les tendances dans un contexte plus large. Les défis pour cette protection n’étaient pas seulement dus aux conflits permanents entre l’État et la population pour l’accès aux ressources, mais également liés aux problèmes internes au sein du gouvernement. Jusque vers 1970, la protection de la nature est restée essentiellement centrée sur l’État et reposait sur une forte pression internationale, plutôt que sur le soutien populaire, et les principaux problèmes rencontrés concernaient surtout l’application des lois, plutôt que l’absence de cadre juridique. Les problèmes posés par la mise en œuvre de la protection de la nature pendant les périodes coloniale et postcoloniale sont restés essentiellement les mêmes. |

Given the changing environmental realities under colonial rule, Java was believed to have come close to a time of ecological crisis. Drawing upon a number of historical sources, this paper examines the development of nature conservation in a frontier region of Java called the Besuki Residency. It is argued that nature conservation in the region was a reflection of trends in a broader context. The challenges for nature conservation were not only due to the continuing contests over resources between the state and the people, but also to internal issues within the government. Up until around 1970 nature conservation remained very much state-centred and with a strong international thrust, rather than relying on popular support, and the primary problems were mostly encountered in the enforcement of the laws, rather than in the absence of a legal framework. The problems existing in the implementation of nature conservation both during the colonial and post-colonial periods essentially remained very much the same. |
