Abstract:

Nature protected area is an important system for maintaining human development and biological diversity,but the lack of management leads to imbalance in supply and demand of the ecosystem services. The governance of nature protected area should be based on various demands from stakeholders. The study comprehensively reviews relevant results from home and abroad and finds that foreign results are more systematic as some contents such as the construction,evaluation and optimization of the nature protected area network have gradually become the focus in the research area. Moreover,the theory and method of the network governance could become a new perspective for research. The study tries to discuss theories about the network governance and build framework for the protection of the natural protected area. It is expected to provide references for promoting the construction of the governance network,figuring out governance rules and advancing the development of relevant theories.

Key words: natural protected area, network governance, ecosystem services, governance framework
