"Different ethnic groups in the highlands of northern Thailand are increasingly involved in conflicts over natural resources. In this paper, the author examines the differences in property rights regimes of three main groups: the Karen, the Hmong and the northern Thai. Juxtaposing these differences with the State's property management, the paper attempts to illuminate the discrepancies between each group's understanding of their rights over the resources. Using a high profile case of conflict between the Hmong highlanders and the Thai lowlanders over forest and water at Mae Soi, Chiang Mai province, the author explores the possibility of a communal property management (CPM) as a solution to the conflict. It is not likely that a single CPM scheme will be successful among the highly diverse groups: separate communally managed schemes are necessary. The villagers interviewed express confidence in managing the forest communally, providing that the boundaries are clearly defined. The third independent partner is required to provide mechanisms for conflict resolution between adjacent areas." |
