The title of this study is The Role of Customs Dayak Keninjal and Melayu in the Conflict Management of Natural Resources in the Tanah Pinoh Melawi. This study was conducted using a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. Data collection tools such as questionnaires and interview guides. The study was conducted during three months in 2015. An important finding of this study is that the population in the district of Tanah Pinoh majority is Dayak Keninjal and Malay. The role of customs is still quite important as the norm will be retained in regulating social life, culture and the human relationship with nature and the environment. They still recognize the term customary rights. They call tanah perompai. They still considers that the forest is part of the lives of its people. Therefore, even if there are changes of forest into plantations, they still hope that the forest areas are strategic and holy places should not be tampered with in order to remain preserved. In the context of conflict resolution that is in society, the role of traditional leaders such as Temenggungs for Dayak and Penggawa's for Malay still important. Settlement of the issue resolved in stages in accordance with the large-small problem, and the complexity of the problems encountered. If complicated then used government law. However, people often use customary law by way of deliberation and consensus.

Commodification Of Nature

This project probes how the circulation of natural resources shapes contemporary land use and environmental identities in the American Rust Belt. Drawing on data from historical archives, original interviews, and ethnography, I examine two cases—one rural and one urban—of boom and bust in a now-defunct, Midwestern iron and steel commodity chain. From this data, I ask how and why natural resources remain ideologically and economically central to post-industrial communities. I demonstrate how the mobility of capital reproduces environmental, economic, and social inequalities.This project revises our understanding of natural resource commodification by probing the tensions between the political economies of industrial capitalism and the place-based nature of social life. Specifically, I argue that post-deindustrialization, the commodification of nature continues to shape land use, infrastructures, and residents’ imaginaries of community identity and economic development. My argument is as follows. First, I draw on historical data to demonstrate how natural resource capitalism not only takes place, but it makes place. I show how the historical political economies of land use constructed persistent infrastructures and ideologies in the communities central to my study. Contemporary interviews reveal how long-term residents contemplate the past as they narrate their identities, reasons for staying, and ideal futures in their de-industrialized communities. Finally, I interrogate contemporary conflicts between possible revivals of industry and a new generation of tourism built on other “natural resources.” This project sheds light on why certain communities continue to center their identities, economic prospects, and perceptions of nature around the concept of natural resources, and offers wide-reaching implications concerning addressing structural and cultural components of human-environment decision-making.

Mangrove Area

Mangrove ecosystem is an important part of the coastal environment. One of the problems in almost all coastal areas in Indonesia is the degradation of mangrove area. In the coastal areas of Langkat Regency, precisely in the Tapak Kuda Village is also facing the same thing. In the last 15 years, mangrove area has reduced quite high. One of them is caused by the conversion of mangrove land into ponds. The existence of mangrove ecosystems is related to socio-economic life of society that causes the decline of mangrove area and the changing environmental conditions of social life. The results showed that the conversion of mangrove land brought the social impact on residents’ lives. Changes in the types of jobs are fishermen decreased 24%, the percentage of farmers rose 19% and fish farmers also rose 10%. Income-related conditions, 24% of people feel steady and have sufficient income to meet the families’ needs, 43% of people feel sometimes high income is not enough to meet families’ needs and 33% of people feel low income that make the families’ needs are not fulfilled. The condition of public education level has increased, the percentage of people completing primary school rose 7%, junior high was up 21%, and high school 16%. Regarding the use of natural resources, there were only 35% of the natural resources that could be managed by the community. Community land use patterns are 10% of ponds, 30% of fields, 20% of fishing areas and 40% of conservation areas.

The purpose of the paper is to study the current problems of ecology and environmental protection, which is associated with the current sustainable trends in economic development. The growth of the world economy as a whole and the economic progress of most developed countries with market relations tends to an increasing use of natural resources and at the same time to an increasing depletion and pollution of the environment. The goal is to determine the essence, prerequisites for the emergence and development of the green economy as a modern concept of interaction between society and nature through the economy, as well as reflect the prerequisites for the activation of the green movement on a global scale in order to preserve nature and ensure the natural conditions of human habitation. The topic of the article is due to the need to disclose modern economic dynamics and rates of social progress and their impact on the environment. In this regard, the essence of the green economy, directions and principles of its implementation for the restoration and strengthening of natural potential are considered. Methodology. A correct assessment and analysis of the dynamics and trends in the development of the world economy in terms of increasing economic potential and increasing the production of economic benefits to ensure the welfare of society allows us to assess the level of impact on nature and the environment. Without the results of these assessments and calculations, significant errors appear in the choice of state priorities for socio-economic policy and in making optimal decisions in the field of production. The study is based on an assessment of the interaction between the world economy and the environment in modern conditions. Results. The questions of modern economic trends in nature and environment are studied. The need for the implementation of the green economy in modern conditions has been determined. The necessity to preserve nature and reduce environmental pollution is becoming more and more urgent. Practical implications. The state of the natural environment and the possibilities of preserving and improving the environment are being studied. An adequate assessment of the state of nature and natural resources will allow the world community to pursue a balanced and effective socio-economic and environmental policy for the harmony of society and nature where it lives. Value/originality. It has been determined that nature is the basis of social life, and at the same time, its preservation is the main goal of social progress. The economy is just the means by which nature creates welfare for society. Nature can exist without humanity, but humanity cannot exist without nature. Therefore, the preservation and strengthening of the environment are more than relevant. To this end, a green economy policy is being implemented in the modern world.

Health tourism is becoming more important as people are more concerned about their health. Meanwhile, traveling for healthcare and consuming medical tourism packages has increased significantly in the last decades. Moreover, many tourists travel abroad, with the intention of benefiting from quality treatments at lower prices, and sometimes benefiting from medical procedures which are unavailable in their home countries. Consequently, health and medical resorts make constant preparations to provide services conforming to the customers’ standards. In this article we present in a comparative perspective the case of two health resorts, i.e. Baile Felix (Romania) and Baladuc-les-Bains (France). Both resorts benefit from rich natural resources, especially thermal waters, but also accommodation and treatment facilities enabling them to provide high quality medical and tourism services.

Lagoon Environment

This study was conducted to reinforce the hypothesis that ecotourism in Quang Loi commune’s lagoon created differences in income and lagoon resource protection of different beneficiary groups. Data was collected through secondary sources, 3 key informant interviews and interviews of 62 households in three household groups: tourism service, fishing, and aquaculture households.  The results reveal that ecotourism services in Quang Loi commune started in 2010 and thrive since 2017, relying on the advantages of the local natural resources. Local community organized and provided tourism services such as: sightseeing on the lagoon, fishing experience, dining and accommodation, and some other services. By joining such services, labors in ecotourism service households earned 39.07 million VND/ year, which significant contributed to improve household’s income. Ecotourism service households, therefore, had higher income than that of fishing group and aquaculture group (85.15 compared to 72.29 and 60 million VND, respectively; p value < 0.05). The lagoon environmental protection activities such as: lagoon night patrol, waste collection, propaganda and advocating for lagoon environmental protection, etc. were paid more attention by the local community since the development of ecotourism. Similarly, there was a significant higher participation time of tourism service households in the above activities in comparison with the rest groups (p value < 0.05). The lagoon environment and resources was assessed to be improved by local residents. This result implicates that ecotourism development is a suitable strategy to improve the local people's livelihood and Tam Giang lagoon resources protection currently.

Environmental Narratives

It is now commonplace to assert that the contemporary discursive landscape is strewn with an abundance of environmental narratives. Yet these stories about nature seldom speak of the material geographies that link practices of postindustrial consumption to often-distant spaces of commodity supply. A postscarcity narrative in which the availability of natural resources no longer poses a limiting factor on economic growth, therefore, characterizes the current period. In this paper I examine how these narratives of ‘resource triumphalism’ construct the nature of commodities and the places that supply them. Using a range of sources, I illustrate how extractive spaces are constructed through a discursive dialectic which simultaneously erases socioecological histories and reinscribes space in the image of the commodity. The paper advances the claim that, despite their apparent marginality in narratives of postindustrialism, primary commodity-supply zones play a key role within broader narratives about modernity and social life. I draw on Hetherington's reworking of the concept of heterotopia to argue that commodity-supply zones be considered contemporary ‘badlands’, marginal spaces in and through which broader processes of sociospatial ordering are worked out. By examining the geographical imaginaries associated with mineral extraction, I demonstrate how contemporary discourses of commodity-supply space facilitate the material practices through which such ordering occurs.
