Abstract:	"The paper looks into the history and culture of conservation that inform the TIHP, with emphasis on the roles of states, institutions, and individuals in the movement for trans-border conservation. It tries to point up to the possibilities of managing a transborder marine habitat high in biodiversity, how conservation makes possible transnational linkages, the sharing of knowledges, and the mobilization of various actors and resources for conservation as desired values vis-à-vis the need for settlement and livelihood. It tries as well to show the limits of trans- border conservation obtaining from local conditions that undermine conservation values."
