Abstract

Resumen: La creciente evidencia del deterioro acelerado de los ecosistemas y la pérdida de biodiversidad han estimulado el diseno y la aplicación de estrategias de conservación basadas en los incentivos económicos. Dos argumentos justifican esta aproximación: i) la inalienabilidad de la propiedad privada, y ii) la eficiencia económica. El objetivo de este artículo es analizar, en términos de eficiencia económica y efectividad ambiental, los diversos instrumentos económicos utilizados para la conservación de áreas naturales. A partir de una revisión extensa de la literatura, se encuentra que la dificultad más importante es la incertidumbre del efecto que tienen los incentivos económicos sobre el tamano y configuración espacial del área a conservar, y por lo tanto del tipo y cantidad de servicios ambientales ofrecidos.
