In order to maintain a sustainable development and biological balance of the territory, the government defines several kinds of restricted areas for land development in National Comprehensive Development Plan. The classification of restricted areas is defined according to the environmental, biological and cultural sensitivities of land, and areas with such restrictions should limit the land use and development. However, owing to the high density of population and finite area of territory, the extension of economical activities to restricted areas such as the commercial activities in a national park is hard to avoid. Besides, during recent years, the fairness of the defining the boundary of restricted areas is often challenged and sometimes causes resistance of local inhabitants. As a result, such problems worsen under the pressure of economical development and thus lead to the malfunction of the land use regulation. To avoid this situation, the establishment of a system of a social compensation for restricted areas is vital to land management.
Although some strategies such as impact fee have been made in order to deal with the environmental external effects caused by land development and modification, such strategies mostly focus on the compensation for people whose rights were damaged. However, there has not been a fair social compensation system dealing with the internalization of external advantages made by the beneficiaries by such land use regulations. Moreover, the traditional compensation strategies mostly deal with the standard of solatium calculation and the law base. Such strategies lack of a positive motivation to the sustainability and symbiosis of the environment.
To achieve the circulation of environmental resources, urging the users to manage and use limited resources in an effective way is vital to the sustainable resource management. The study adopts the concepts of resource-based theory, environmental partnerships and non-profit enterprises, effectively integrates the public spirit of the government, the management knowledge of private sectors and the mobilization energy of local communities, and establishes a new cooperation model named ¡§social enterprise¡¨ based on communities.
Based on a case study of Kenting National Park, this thesis first proceeds a survey of evaluation for environmental resources and attitude of local inhabitants and tourists towards the resource management in the restricted area using contingent valuation method (CVM). Through the result of the case study and the practical experiences of environmental partnerships carried in other countries, the thesis then discusses about the present problems of the compensation system in Taiwan and suggests possible strategies for the establishment of future social compensation system based on the concepts of local innovation and environmental partnerships.
