论文摘要
通过发展旅游业，人们对纳米比亚Zambezi地区的增长有很高的渴望。 Zambezi地区是Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier保护区（Kaza）的核心元素，该区域是具有不同保护程度的区域的马赛克，该区域旨在结合自然保护和农村发展。这些保护区是野生动植物旅游业的资源基础，增长走廊政策旨在通过基础设施发展将该地区纳入旅游全球生产网络（GPN）。尽管增长走廊的普及越来越高，但对本地一级发展策略的有效性知之甚少。混合方法的方法表明，基础设施的改善导致该地区的旅游业增加。但是，建立导致保护区域指定的领土保护虚构是这种发展的必要前提。尽管与旅游业相关的领土索赔深远，但农村居民的收益仍有限。
There are high aspirations to foster growth in Namibia's Zambezi region via the development of tourism. The Zambezi region is a core element of the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA), a mosaic of areas with varying degrees of protection, which is designed to combine nature conservation and rural development. These conservation areas serve as a resource base for wildlife tourism, and growth corridor policy aims to integrate the region into tourism global production networks (GPNs) by means of infrastructure development. Despite the increasing popularity of growth corridors, little is known about the effectiveness of this development strategy at local level. The mixed-methods approach reveals that the improvement of infrastructure has led to increased tourism in the region. However, the establishment of a territorial conservation imaginary that results in the designation of conservation areas is a necessary precondition for such a development. Despite the far-reaching territorial claims associated with tourism, the benefits for rural residents are limited.
