Global, National, or Market? : Emerging REDD+ Governance Practices in Mozambique and Tanzania

摘要

This article examines emerging governance practices in the REDD (Reducing Emissionsfrom Deforestation and Forest Degradation) initiative. We examine three different generalgovernance practices (neoliberal, post-national, and government-led practices) thathave been applied in the interaction between international organizations and two REDDtarget countries: Mozambique and Tanzania. In these countries, we find that emergingREDD+ governance practices are a mixture of international organizations’ proceduralpractices and the target country’s established governance practices, whereas neoliberalpractices are weakly expressed. These findings call into question the simplified assumptionof reduced state authority.
