Web of Power in the Struggle for Access Rights to Forest Resources: Comparative Case Studies in Conservation and Industrial Forests

preprint OA: closed CC-BY-4.0

Abstract

The web of power in the struggle for forest resources arose as a response to forest resource conflicts between the state and local communities. In Foucault’s concept, power was not held solely by the state but existed in social relations involving various parties. This study aimed to map the web of power in the struggle for access rights to forest resources. It used a qualitative approach and a comparative case study method. The informants for this study were local governments, forest managers, local communities, and NGOs. Ten informants were selected purposively in each location. Data collection techniques were observation, in-depth interviews, and literature studies. Data analysis was carried out using thematic analysis. The study results showed that in Mount Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS), conflict occurred due to the policy of expanding the national park, resulting in the loss of local community access to the forest area. Meanwhile, in Sungai Utik, the conflict was triggered by a state policy that issued a business permit to use forest products (IUPHHK) in the customary forest area. Although the IUPHHK has never been revoked, the power relations have shown a more egalitarian pattern based on the state’s recognition and the community’s solidarity. The findings indicated that contestation over access rights to forest resources in two different forests had resulted in two distinct webs of power models. Power relations were not static, but constantly changed depending on the configuration of local communities’ political power, legal support, advocacy networks, and social capital.

F1000Research 2026, 15 :51 ( https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.171466.1 ) First published: 13 Jan 2026, 15 :51 ( https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.171466.1 ) Latest published: 13 Jan 2026, 15 :51 ( https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.171466.1 ) Introduction Power relations are the dynamics between political elites and local communities, shaped by their struggle to control forest resources. These power relations define the balance of power and serve as a community strategy to mobilize other stakeholders in their quest for power in settling disputes over forest access rights. These disputes, which evolve into meaningful conflicts between the involved parties, 1 have made access to natural resources, particularly forests, a pivotal issue in the power dynamics between the state, political elites, and local communities in Indonesia. Beyond their economic significance, forests are repositories of cultural, spiritual, and ecological values indispensable to local communities, especially indigenous ones. However, the unequal power relations in forest resource management often create tension and injustice. Forest resource management is a technical and ecological challenge and a social arena fraught with complex power dynamics and management structures. From a sociological perspective, environmental management is seen as the product of interactions between various parties: the state, companies, local communities, NGOs, and others, each with its own interests, perspectives, and legitimacy methods. 2 In this context, power is relational and distributed, centralized in the state and emerging through narratives, regulatory practices, and even local knowledge that influence forest perspectives. 3 Hegemony sometimes occurs in power relations in forest management, where powerful actors exert hegemony through coercion or unintentional consent, while weaker groups resist through counter-hegemonic actions. 4 , 5 Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the web of power in the competition for forest access is crucial. It engages us in the struggle for ideas, the distribution of power, and forms of resistance and negotiation at both the local and global levels, and commits us to finding solutions. Research on power relations was often linked to the reciprocal relationship between humans and natural resources. It examined how humans and nature were connected and how humans utilize nature. 6 Power relations significantly determined access to and utilization of resources. 7 In resource control, unequal power relations often led to conflict. The agrarian conflict in Aceh was caused by unequal land ownership between companies, farmers, and the government. 8 Several triggers for conflict exist, including injustice, restrictions on access to forest resources, and a lack of community involvement in forest management. Evictions from forests, acts of violence, and lawsuits were some of the events that contributed to the conflict pathway. 9 Conflicting policies and overlapping ownership arrangements, 10 also contributed to unequal power relations. Unfair utilization of natural resources led to conflict and tension in the struggle for natural resources. Tensions based on unequal power relations and hierarchical structures of actors had zero-sum impacts on humans and the physical environment. 11 History showed that in some regions, land and natural resource grabbing have resulted in the loss of rights for one party over another. Studies of land grabbing in China provided a glimpse into state-society relations in authoritarian versus democratic regimes. 12 In the case of forest resources, power relations became unequal due to differences in power and diverse interests in forest utilization and control. Under these conditions, forest conservation policies were negotiated, manipulated, and reformed in ways that differ significantly from those initially envisioned by policymakers. 13 In Nepal’s case of forest management, forest management plans were a prerequisite for obtaining forest management rights. Users accept the plans to gain access to forest resources, while for the forestry bureaucracy, the plans served as a tool to regain power and authority over the forests. 14 In Laos, land-use planning was crucial for strengthening land tenure security, intensifying agriculture, and conserving forest areas. 10 In Vietnam, restrictions on access rights to forest resources and a lack of alternative livelihoods have been a negative consequence of REDD+. 15 In Norway, rural unrest and center-periphery conflict could be caused by alienation, isolation, or estrangement from one’s community or society, leading to social and political unrest. 16 In Zimbabwe, the concept of local communities being excluded from access to resources in protected forest areas was also found. 17 Power is exercised through various mechanisms, processes, and social relationships, impacting local communities’ access to resources. 17 In India, land and natural resource grabbing are occurring to support ‘growth’. Marginalized groups and local communities were excluded from access to and control over resources. 18 In the Indonesian context, previous research has shown that forest management issues are closely linked to governance, local community livelihoods, and the meaning of natural resources. This situation creates a complex web of power relations; for example, research on edge effects and habitat fragmentation in Mount Halimun Salak National Park, 19 maintaining local livelihoods 20 and the role of forest management in forest management, 20 , 21 forest resource conflicts, 22 which link human pressures to wildlife distribution and the strengthening of local actors’ roles in conservation efforts, 23 which provide concrete evidence of how environmental power relations are produced in field practices such as ecological studies and biological inventories in TNGHS which are based on local knowledge and scientific programs (e.g., the IndoBioSys inventory project), 24 these dynamics illustrate how conservation narratives, scientific legitimacy, and economic interests construct a competitive arena for access. The case of indigenous communities like Sungai Utik also shows a similar pattern. Although the community claims customary rights and practices sustainable management, commercial pressures and national policies shift their position, leading to conflict, local community mobilization, and legal advocacy efforts that lead all elements to form power networks in the struggle for forest access. 22 A recent national review of customary governance and the dynamics between the government and the Dayak Iban Sungai Utik indigenous community on conservation issues, 25 highlights the importance of examining power networks to understand the negotiation process, management dominance, and practices of resistance to such domination. Various previous studies have shown that unequal power relations arise from multiple factors. In Indonesia, historical records indicated inequality in land access and its manifestation in land ownership. 26 However, few studies have examined how marginalized local communities fight for their rights by creating power networks. Imbalances in power distribution and representation of actors within policy networks could hinder the achievement of desired outcomes and progress. 27 This study aimed to map the power relations in the struggle for forest access rights by using Mount Halimun Salak National Park in West Java and the Sungai Utik Forest in West Kalimantan as cases, with a fair and inclusive forest resource management model. Furthermore, this study was also relevant within the sociology of government, political ecology, and public administration framework, highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of the research. This multidisciplinary approach was crucial in renewing equitable and inclusive natural resource governance. A deep understanding of the network of power relations at the local level could be the basis for formulating policies that support environmental conservation and respect community rights. Methods Research approach This research used a qualitative approach 28 ; with an interpretive paradigm. This approach was chosen to deeply understand the social realities and networks of power relations between political elites and local communities in the struggle for access to forest resources. The method used is a comparative case study. This research’s comparative case study approach simultaneously considers the macro, meso, and micro dimensions of case-based research. 29 This approach emphasizes “cross-location exploration,” namely comparing two locations with different orientations, the Mount Halimun Salak National Park, which is more conservation-oriented, and the Sungai Utik forest, which is more industrially oriented. A “case study” is best defined as an intensive study of a single unit that can be generalized to a larger set of units. 30 Case studies make it possible to extract lessons from a particular historical experience. 31 Sampling strategy To elucidate the perceptions of stakeholders (political elites and local communities) regarding the social realities and power relations networks in the struggle for access to forest resources, in-depth interviews with 10 informants in each location, and focus group discussions (FGDs) with representatives of traditional leaders, local communities, government officials, political elites, and environmental activists (NGOs) were conducted. Purposive sampling has been used in research to gain an in-depth understanding of a phenomenon. The interviews were conducted several times (February 2020–September 2020). Meanwhile, the FGD was held on May 15, 2020 in Mount Bogor Halimun Salak National Park, and on June 18, 2020 in Sungai Utik Forest. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia and the Directorate General of Higher Education, Research, and Technology have approved this research project and determined that this research project meets research ethics standards. Before participating in the research, the participants were fully informed about the objectives and procedures and provided written consent. Triangulation To reduce data bias and increase validity and reality, triangulation of data sources, methods, and perspectives (theories) was carried out to cross-check data and interpretation. 32 – 34 Triangulation of data sources involves comparing data from various sources using the same technique, through in-depth interviews with various informants, namely community leaders, local communities, NGOs, and government officials. Triangulation of methods was carried out through different data collection methods, namely interviews and FGDs. Triangulation of theory was carried out by using different theories to view the phenomenon of power relations. From the micro side, Foucault’s theory of power relations 35 examines how discourse and knowledge shape the behavior of local communities in responding to conflicts over access rights to forest governance with the state. From the macro side, Gramsci’s theory of hegemony 4 explains how the structure of power and state domination hegemonizes local communities. Participants We involved five categories of participants representing stakeholders: customary leaders, local communities, government officials, political elites, and environmental activists (NGOs) from the Mount Halimun Salak National Park and Sungai Utik Forest areas. These included customary leaders with in-depth knowledge of the history of customary forests. Local communities that have long lived near forest areas (especially those involved in forest conflicts or management). Government officials from the Forestry Service, national park managers, and village/sub-district governments. Local political elites, namely actors involved in forestry policymaking, and environmental activists or NGOs involved in advocating for community rights to forest resources. Data collection methods We conducted in-depth interviews with government officials, village/sub-district governments, political elites, and environmental activists (NGOs). Before conducting the in-depth interviews, 36 we identified the informants who would participate in the research. A purposive sampling method was used in data collection, particularly in identifying government officials, village/sub-district governments, political elites, and environmental activists (NGOs). In addition to in-depth interviews, other informants from traditional leaders and local communities were also interviewed through focus group discussions (FGDs), 36 as informants were not always available due to their busy schedules in the fields. Our procedure for interviewing local communities involved granting research permission to the traditional leaders. With this approval, the conventional leaders recommended that residents participate in the interviews. Technically, we interviewed residents in one village on a rotating basis. We also conducted the same interviews with government officials, village/sub-district governments, political elites, and environmental activists (NGOs). Interviews were conducted offline over two months. Before completing the interviews, we made appointments to schedule interviews with the residents. Interviews were recorded with a digital voice recorder and lasted between 1 and 1 hour and 30 minutes. Interviews took place in residents’ homes. The interview guide was structured into several topics, with general, open-ended, non-leading questions and several follow-up questions. We conducted the FGDs offline at the homes of traditional leaders in each location. These FGDs were conducted for the community only. We sent letters of permission or approval to participate in the research to the traditional leaders in each location. After obtaining approval, we sent discussion materials to each participant to discuss during the FGD. The FGDs lasted three hours. Each FGD participant provided opinions and input on the research topic related to social realities and power relations networks in the struggle to access forest resources. We documented the activities through photographs, participant attendance lists, and FGD minutes, which will be used for analysis in the next stage. Data collection instruments and technologies The following questions guided the interviews: a. What does the forest mean? b. Is there legitimacy for forest ownership by the state/community? c. Are there conflicts in forest management? d. When did these conflicts begin, and what were their causes? e. What forms did these conflicts take? f. Who was involved in the contestation over forest resource management, and what rationales underlie each party’s actions? g. What was the role of each stakeholder in the struggle for forest resources? h. Is there local knowledge about forest management? i. Who holds control over land and forest resources? j. On what basis is ownership defined? k. What rights do communities currently have over forest resources? l. What were the forms and processes of power relations in forest resource management? m. What are the positions of communities and the state in forest resource management following government forest policies? n. How was the conflict resolution process for forest management disputes? Who plays a role, and what were their roles? o. How did communities develop power networks to gain access to forest governance? Some questions posed to local communities were the same as those posed to stakeholders (government officials, political elites, and NGOs). In addition to interviews, modified data collection was conducted through focus group discussions (FGDs). Discussion topics posed to FGD participants focused on the research objective: mapping the power networks involved in the struggle for access rights to forest resources. Furthermore, the contributions and roles of each stakeholder in forest resource management were also discussed. Meanwhile, for government officials and political elites, discussion topics related to their involvement in providing forest resource management services, including their opinions on the power networks involved in the struggle for access rights to forest resources. The FGD Guidelines specifically address the following: a. Forms and processes of power relations. b. Causes of conflict. c. Discourse Clash. d. Power Asymmetry. e. Resistance and Adaptation. f. Object of Contestation. Data analysis Data analysis aimed to describe and map the power networks in the struggle for access rights to forest resources. Interviews were transcribed and analyzed through the following stages: (a) Transcription and organization of interview and observation data; (b) Open coding to identify initial themes; (c) Categorization and arrangement of patterns of relationships between themes (e.g., domination, resistance, negotiation, legal recognition, etc.); and (d) Critical interpretation of the network of power relations based on the socio-political context of each location. We used Braun and Clarke’s (2012) thematic analysis, which is appropriate for identifying, evaluating, and formulating key themes expressed by researchers. 37 In this analysis, we combined deductive and inductive procedures. As a starting point for categorization, we referred to the conditions related to cooperative relationships between stakeholders (government officials, village/sub-district governments, political elites, and environmental activists), including the theory of Power Networks, which is in a struggle for access rights to forest resources. This analysis encompasses all participants’ statements and perceptions regarding the power networks involved in the struggle for access rights to forest resources. These statements were identified based on perspective themes, which were then concentrated, summarized, coded, and categorized into units of analysis. Ethical consideration This research was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Institute for Research and Community Service, Djuanda University (Number for Ethical Consideration: 001/LPPM/KEP/II/2020) on February 5, 2020. After adequate consultation, the researcher provided written consent to all informants in Mount Halimun Salak National Park and Sungai Utik Forest (Number for Consent Forms from Respondents/Informants: 001/IC/LPPM/II/2020). The informants gave their consent without coercion from anyone. Furthermore, to protect the rights and privacy of respondents, all data obtained will be kept confidential. Results The data from the research results, interviews, and FGDs were processed and analyzed thematically. The results of the analysis can be seen in Table 1 . Table 1 explains the stages of thematic analysis using Braun and Clarke’s (2012) concept. Data analysis was carried out through the following stages: (a) Familiarization with Data; (b) Creating Codes; (c) Finding Initial Themes; (d) Review and Develop Themes; (e) Determine and Name the Theme; (f ) Writing a Report.

Power Networks is in a struggle for access rights to forest resources Writing a Report Organizing the analysis results into a clear and compelling narrative Results and discussion Based on the analysis results, two themes were obtained in this study: (a) Forest as an object of contestation; (b) Power Networks are in a struggle for access rights to forest resources. Forests as objects of contestation In the Indonesian context, forests are not merely ecological areas but also political spaces fraught with interests and power. In two research locations, Mount Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS) in West Java and the Sungai Utik Customary Forest in West Kalimantan, forests have become arenas of contestation between state actors, political elites, corporate permit holders, and local communities. This contestation involved struggles over access, claims to resource ownership, and the legitimacy of conservation, development, and customary rights narratives. Mount Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS) is a strategic conservation area on the island of Java, serving as a habitat for numerous endemic species and a vital resource for indigenous communities such as the Kasepuhan. Since the national park expansion policy was enacted based on Decree 175/2003, the park’s area has been expanded from 40,000 hectares to 113,357 hectares. 21 The expansion of this national park has transformed the community-managed forest area into a national park area, which has resulted in the loss of local community ( Kasepuhan indigenous community) access rights to the area, due to conservation policies that tend to be centralistic and oriented solely towards ecological protection. Conflicts arose when traditional community practices carried out for generations are considered contrary to modern conservation principles, without considering local community livelihoods and socio-cultural aspects. Forests became objects of contestation, where the state, through national parks, frames forests as ecological assets that local communities must protect from encroachment. In contrast, local communities saw them as cultural heritage that was part of their identity and life system, including a source of livelihood. The state used conservation discourse to legitimize exclusionary policies, while communities used narratives of customary rights and local wisdom to fight for access to forest management. Unlike the TNGHS, the Sungai Utik Forest, inhabited by the Dayak Iban indigenous people, has received formal recognition as a customary forest. The Dayak Iban community was widely known for its success in protecting its forest from encroachment and exploitation by companies holding timber forest product utilization permits (TFPUP). The discourse was that the state grants companies a permit for timber forest utilization (industrial forest), while the community maintains the forest’s sustainability. There are zones designated for conservation and utilization. The conservation issue by indigenous communities against the discourse of industrial forests by the state has resulted in the indigenous community gaining support from various parties. Although the Sungai Utik Forest was recognized as a customary forest, it did not necessarily eliminate the potential for contestation, given that the TFPUP decree has never been revoked. Therefore, the potential for conflict remains, albeit latent. In some cases, local governments have attempted to offer economic cooperation in customary areas with promises of development, which the indigenous community has met with caution. The forest in Sungai Utik was not only a financial or environmental resource, but also a symbol of identity and spirituality. Power networks is in a struggle for access rights to forest resources Several concepts apply in Indonesia when understanding control over land and natural resources. Some land rights were defined as property rights (land rights), while others were defined solely as access rights. Furthermore, the state defined some property and access rights, while others were based on local cultural customs. These differing definitions of rights between the state and indigenous communities led to overlapping recognition of rights by the state and the community. Forestry policies on the conservation and use of timber and other forest products are often directly linked to the traditional rights of communities. It is a fact that local communities often live around the forest and claim control over the forest. However, this community faces a different reality. Legal forest tenure documents do not support traditional community forest ownership. It has undermined the ordinary standing of the community, especially in the face of state interest in the forest. This study demonstrated that all issues related to conflicts between the state and local communities over forest resource management rights stem from conflicts of interest in forest resource management. In the case of TNGHS, multiple stakeholders have an interest in forests. The primary stakeholders of most significant interest are the local and state communities represented by the TNGHS. Possessing these resources is necessary, especially when each party’s interests need to be considered appropriately. The community values the forest for protection and as a source of livelihood. These concerns conflict with the state’s desire to transform the TNGHS into a protected forest. Both claimed control over all natural resources and the right to control everything from above. This force wants to construct a whole in which, teleologically, everything fits and finds its place. The ministry is based on a division of labor, favoring a few people with social skills and the ability to manage production tools. The TNGHS shows that the state has higher authority while the Kasepuhan community is subordinate. These superior and subordinate positions are evident when states seek to exercise power by enforcing laws against those who allegedly violate their rights. This power also includes imprisonment for violations of national park regulations, such as deforestation. However, the antlers were discovered on their farmland, which happened to be in the TNGHS area. The community’s struggle to obtain access rights to the forest resources, which we refer to as the social-environmental movement, shows the superiority of an environmental management system by the community that is more just for the interests of people’s welfare and environmental sustainability. However, the political and economic elite will always win compared to the lower classes in the political arena in developing countries. Knowledge of the environment will determine the direction of social and environmental movements. In this context, actors fighting for natural resources are divided into three regimes. (1) Organic regime, namely local community knowledge in the form of local wisdom that has lived and managed its territory for centuries; (2) Capitalist regime, namely knowledge reproduced by capitalists in carrying out development and providing employment for local communities; (3) Technological regime, i.e., knowledge reproduced by researchers about biodiversity coming to an area to search for potential plants to be used in commercial applications. 38 The three actors with different characters and cultural bases produce three distinct regimes of knowledge about the environment. However, these three bits of knowledge can approach and unite each other, resulting in a common understanding of the environment. In the case of Mount Halimun Salak National Park, the battle of the three regimes in managing and utilizing natural resources forms a particular socio-ecological system. 22 In the Kasepuhan case, the state promoted the power of scientific knowledge by introducing national policies, which directly and indirectly weakened local community knowledge and forced changes in local community attitudes, behaviors, and actions toward forests. It was found. States and local communities may compete and resist to gain power over forest management and use. This conflict created a balance of power. In the case of the TNGHS, the national policy of expanding national parks could only be partially implemented based on the techno-nature concept espoused by the TNGHS. It was hindered by the local community’s knowledge of organic nature ( Kasepuhan customs). Most political ecology concepts assume that nature has causal relationships or “agents” that must be considered to explain social and socioecological phenomena better. 39 – 41 Although there was no overt resistance from local communities, Kasepuhan’s power over forest resources was the reason for the limited implementation of the national park’s conservation concept, which was designed based on scientific knowledge. This limited implementation was evidenced by the fact that there was a negotiation process between local communities and TNGHS centers. However, in this case, although the negotiations were still ongoing, more technicalities were already in play, so the state had already won. Nevertheless, disputes remain regarding borders, access, and zoning. In the case of Sungai Utik , although formally the Dayak Iban community of Sungai Utik does not have property rights according to state concepts, they do have access to the area, including all rights: rights of access, withdrawal, management, exclusion, and alienation. These two cases reflect the diverse forms and processes of power relations between the two locations. Despite their different socio-cultural backgrounds, contestation over the forest exhibits similar patterns in TNGHS and Sungai Utik. Table 2 provides more details. Table 2. Forms and processes of power relations in TNGH and Sungai Utik Forest. No Indicators TNGHS Sungai Utik 1 Forms and processes of power relations. The dominance of state and corporate actors using legal legitimacy to control people's living spaces. Forms of resistance and social transformation have also emerged, championed by local communities to defend their rights and identity. 2 Causes of conflict. Top-down policies that failed to accommodate local wisdom led to resistance from indigenous communities. Recognition of customary systems and active community participation in forest management have created a sustainable and inclusive conservation model. 3 Discourse Clash. The state used the language of conservation and development, while communities used the narrative of customary rights and traditional sustainability. The state used its right to utilize forests, while communities used the narrative of customary rights with conservation issues. 4 Power Asymmetry. The state and elites possessed greater legal, regulatory, and economic resources, while communities rely on social networks, local knowledge, and advocacy. The state and elites possessed greater legal, regulatory, and economic resources, but communities utilize national and international networks to support customary forest management. 5 Resistance and Adaptation. Local communities were not entirely passive; they actively engaged in overt resistance (demonstrations, lawsuits) and symbolic resistance (traditional rituals, historical narratives). Local communities actively seek support from various national and international parties through community-based conservation forest campaigns. 6 Object of Contestation. State conservation interests versus economic exploitation, and the rights of indigenous peoples. State Industrial Forests versus Indigenous Peoples' Conservation Forests. Discussion Forests as an object of contestation Forests were a natural resource, frequently the subject of conflict involving various parties. A frequently raised question regarding natural resources was who has the right to own these resources. To answer this question, Bromley argued that natural resource ownership was divided into four regimes: open access, state ownership, private ownership, and communal ownership. The government had absolute power to determine who had the right to access these resources, and these government policies often created conflicts of interest between its role as an agent of development and a protector of the community. 42 The level of conflict varies from covert to overt. The severity of the conflict is influenced by how threatened the ownership rights to the contested natural resources are. Several situations could lead to overt conflict. First, government-community conflict occurred when the government protects natural resource areas. Using conservation policy instruments, tools, or methods to implement conservation policies, the government determined an area to be a conservation or protected area, as in the case of Mount Halimun Salak National Park. This regulation indirectly eliminated the community’s rights to access and carry out activities in the area. Communities lose their rights to regulate, process, and utilize forest resources. This condition caused a conflict of interest between the government and the community. 22 State-led and supported extractive policies removed the safety valve for a stable future by eliminating the relationship between communities and nature. First, government-community conflict occurs when the government protected natural resource areas. Using conservation policy instruments, the government determined an area to be a conservation or protected area, as in the case of Mount Halimun Salak National Park. This regulation indirectly eliminated the community’s rights to access and conducted activities in the area. Communities lose their rights to regulate, process, and utilize forest resources. This condition caused a conflict of interest between the government and the community. 22 State-led and -supported extractive policies eliminate the safety valve for a stable future by eliminating the relationship between society and nature. 43 Second, the conflict between the government and society occurred when the government acted as a development agent. With its authority, the government involved the private sector in using natural resources. In contrast, these natural resources were de facto controlled and claimed as communal property of indigenous peoples, for example, in the case of the Sungai Utik Forest conflict in West Kalimantan. Sungai Utik Forest was claimed as the customary forest of the Dayak Iban Sungai Utik community. 22 Third, the management of natural resources in the era of modernism ignored local wisdom due to the dominance of science, even though local insight is produced by local communities. Modernization began with marginalizing traditional governance based on local knowledge and techniques. This condition has caused local traditions to be uprooted and pushed into the technocratic world. The state intervened to limit access for various reasons, such as two sides of the coin, as if community-based management, even though the state had greater control, ignores local wisdom. Government intervention in socio-territorial conflicts, accountability mechanisms, and state re-territorialization were paradoxically interconnected in such a way that they hinder the collaborative features and natural resource management capabilities ostensibly supported by community-based approaches. 44 Political and legal changes were mediated by power relations, cultural norms, and economic incentives, highlighting that the double-edged sword of rights could pave the way for greater state control over future benefits derived from community territories classified as forest lands. 10 Forest destruction in the TNGHS was suspected to be related to the power constellation of natural resource (forest) management. 45 A more straightforward definition was needed concerning natural resource management. Principal questions such as: who had the right to manage natural resources? Did the community have room to gain access to natural resource management? The answer to this question was related to the theory of property rights, which was the object of study in ecological politics. Types of property rights were (1) Access rights, namely rights to be able to enter natural resource areas and to take non-extractive rights from the areas; (2) Withdrawal rights, namely rights to produce or utilize natural resources in the area; (3) Management rights, namely the rights to regulate, manage and make rules for the utilization of these natural resources; (4) The right of exclusion, namely the right to determine who is allowed to enter the area, how to access it and how to transfer said access right to another party; (5) The right of transfer, namely the right owned to be able to sell or rent part or all of it to another party. 46 Several factors have been identified as the leading causes of conflicts over forest resources. Safitri points out that the political construction and administrative legalization (territorial politics) of natural resources in space, known as space and forests, cause various conflicts. 47 Conflict as the complexity of power relations between states and non-state actors, including competition for control of access to natural resources, especially forests. Conflict was a reaction to repressive strategies and mechanisms that have led communities to develop resistance strategies and tactics. 47 According to the opinions above, conflicts over forest resources are caused by political structures and administrative legitimacy (territorial politics), conflicts over control of access to natural resources, and strategies of resistance to repressive state measures. It is said that Conflicts in the management and use of forest resources arise because of competing interests, overlapping interpretations of rights and access by states and local communities, and differing underlying knowledge of the parties to the conflict. In the case of TNGHS, introducing new knowledge led to state hegemony over local communities. It changed the community’s knowledge of technical institutions by replacing them with modern knowledge and institutions. Kasepuhan communities no longer have rights and various access to natural resources. Even the battle of knowledge at the bargaining table undermines the functioning of traditional institutions. Community knowledge becomes a subordinate body of knowledge. On the other hand, national knowledge based on technology and capitalism has been prioritized. In this context, Foucault’s approach can be used to see how the collective power of forest management and utilization played a role, where knowledge was seen as power. 35 Foucault emphasized the micropolitics of power. Through this micropolitics, the state incorporated local community knowledge with new knowledge and showed how state knowledge can solve forest-related problems through state institutions and various forms of communication. If there had been cooperation between communities and the government, as in the case of Jambi, this forest resource conflict would not have occurred. The success of the community-government collaboration process will result in the effective use of natural forest resources, educating communities on traditional forest use and conservation of typical forest environments, and the daily use of forest areas in Jambi to develop ecotourism. 48 However, the role of the government in achieving ecological governance is more dominant. 49 , 50 Power networks in the struggle for access rights to forest resources Based on the phenomena demonstrated by the Kasepuhan and Dayak Iban Communities of Sungai Utik , one impact of conflict at the group level was resilience. Conflict causes indigenous communities to develop resilience. Resilience is defined as the ability of people to recover quickly from shock, injury, etc., and their natural resilience helps them overcome the crisis (Oxford Dictionary). In that case, both the Kasepuhan and Dayak Iban Communities possessed resilience. In the case of the TNGHS, the power network model in Mount Halimun Salak National Park can be seen in Figure 1 . Figure 1 described that when state institutions dominated local institutions through state policies on national park expansion and cripple customary institutions, this situation has forced customary institutions to change. On the one hand, customary institutions could not benefit from the forest due to a lack of access. However, the community’s ability to adapt to new circumstances has increased due to the conflict with the TNGHS. This ability was more accurately described as resilience. The resilience of the Kasepuhan community was demonstrated by their ability to avoid attacks by avoiding open conflict and secretly continuing to cultivate the leuweung garapan (cultivated forest) area while still fighting for access rights to the forest. They could also consolidate by forging alliances with other Kasepuhan community groups and forming indigenous community alliances, the ability to buy time by negotiating, re-dialoging about boundaries, access, and even zoning, and the ability to embrace other parties by developing their web of power by embracing not only NGOs but also the local government. When access to forest resources became limited, and demands for change from their community increased, the Kasepuhan community began to develop other abilities to provide access to the Kasepuhan in the local political space, through affiliations they built with local governments or national political elites. In the Kasepuhan community, conflict caused change, and this change was evidence that the Kasepuhan institution had resilience by developing a web of power whose target was political authority at the local level. Figure 1. The web of power model of the Kasepuhan community. Following the completion of the research, researchers continued to discuss the progress of the community’s negotiations. In their fight for forest rights, the Kasepuhan community formed crucial partnerships with local elites and the regional government, demonstrating the potential for collaborative solutions. Constitutional Court Decision No. 35 of 2012 concerning Customary Forests as State Forests raised hopes for the community to gain recognition through regional government regulations. After twenty years of struggle, in 2024, the Sukabumi Regency Government issued Regulation No. 7 of 2024 concerning the Recognition and Protection of Indigenous Communities. This regulation offered hope for the legitimacy of the Kasepuhan community, including its customary territory. Through this regional regulation, the community is allowed to regain access rights. However, as of this writing, the boundaries of their customary territory have not yet been determined. This means the community still has to fight to obtain full access rights, even without ownership rights. This situation implies hegemony 4 within the Kasepuhan community. The Dayak Iban community, distinct from the Kasepuhan community, employed unique strategies in conflict resolution. Rather than avoiding attacks, they resisted, expelling entrepreneurs from the area, confiscating their heavy equipment, and demonstrating resilience in defending the area. In their struggle against the state, the Dayak Iban community had honed its ability to consolidate internally and with other Dayak Iban communities within the Jalai Lintang Ketemenggungan (The Jalai Lintang clan). They had also expanded their web of power by collaborating with non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The power network in Sungai Utik Forest can be seen in Figure 2 . Figure 2. The web of power model of the Dayak Iban Sungai Utik community. Figure 2 described that forest resource conflicts became increasingly complex when local governments entered the conflict arena with their regional autonomy. In the case of the TNGHS, the local government assisted the Kasepuhan community in resolving the conflict with the BTNGHS by supporting the existence of indigenous communities in the TNGHS area. However, in the case of the Sungai Utik Forest, the local government exacerbated the conflict by issuing a palm oil plantation permit to a company on the same land. It was a manifestation of a clientelist system, where entrepreneurs, as local elites, exploit their close ties with the state to reproduce power, often at the expense of state expropriation. 51 This situation highlights the weakness of state institutions, which have the functional effect of reproducing elites who serve the interests of extractive capital. However, this system was fraught with deep contradictions, leading to conflict and violence that repeatedly endanger these interests. 51 In addition to local community actors, the state (Central Government), the state (Regional Government), and business actors, there are also NGO actors. In the case of the TNGHS (National Forest Conservation Area), some NGOs support the BTNGHS program. In contrast, others support the Kasepuhan Community’s struggle to obtain access rights to manage the forest. NGOs are central to power relations between both parties in the contest. The Kasepuhan Community’s network with certain NGOs is formed due to a shared ideology (defending indigenous peoples) and a shared fate among fellow “indigenous peoples” who generally share the same problems related to tenurial conflicts with the state. In the case of the Sungai Utik Forest, the presence of NGOs supports the struggle of the Sungai Utik Dayak Iban Community to gain recognition of their customary forest rights. The Sungai Utik Community’s struggle is voiced mainly by NGOs claiming to represent and act on behalf of the community. This support from national and international NGOs has influenced the shift in local knowledge of the Dayak Iban Sungai Utik Community. These NGOs try to enlighten the community about forest knowledge. NGOs led the community to understand carbon trading, REDD, and demonstrative activity (DA). There was a shift in discourse from the fight for “property rights” to shifting towards global benefits for all parties, the community, the country, and the world. Furthermore, an important achievement of NGO assistance to the Dayak Iban Community of Sungai Utik was facilitating the indigenous community to obtain an ecolabeling certificate, namely an award from the Indonesian ecolabel institution with Certificate Number 08/SCBFM/005 given for forest management by the Sungai Utik Panjae Menua house (forest management unit of the Sungai Utik Panjae Menua house), within the scope of the “sustainable community-based forest management (SCBFM) unit with an area of 9,453.40 hectares”. This ecolabeling certificate proves that community-based forest management ensures social sustainability and conservation. Community-based forest governance creates conditions for achieving better conservation and sustainable use of forest ecosystems, as well as social welfare and poverty reduction for the community. 44 These and many other socio-economic needs are part of the global value chain of environmental justice debates. 52 In addition to eco-labeling, the results of power relations with various parties have produced the following achievements: a. Kalpataru award, July 19, 2019. b. Equator prize, September 24, 2019, in new york. Kapuas Hulu Regent’s Decree No. 561 Of 2019 Concerning The Recognition and Protection of The Dayak Iban Menua Indigenous Community of Sungai Utik, The clan of Jalai Lintang, Embaloh Hulu District, Kapuas Hulu Regency. This research was conducted in 2020, but after its completion, researchers continued to monitor the progress and achievements of the Dayak Iban Sungai Utik community. Other achievements resulting from collaboration with national and international NGOs were as follows: a. On May 20, 2022, the Ministry of Environment and Forestry issued a Decree concerning Customary Forests, and b. on July 19, 2023, the Dayak Iban Sungai Utik community received the Gulbenkian Prize in Portugal. This achievement further strengthened the Dayak Iban Sungai Utik community’s position in obtaining access rights to the Sungai Utik forest. However, their concerns remain unanswered, as the government has never revoked the IUPHHK (Cultivated Forest Management Permit). The Dayak Iban Sungai Utik community has been fighting for the issuance of a Forest Management Permit (IUPHHK) since 1997 and received an ecolabel certificate in 2008. Thus, it took 11 years to achieve their first success in the fight for forest management rights. The Dayak Iban community’s success was supported by its power relations with national and international elites and NGOs. Learning from the two cases above, struggles over access rights were unnecessary when the state was present in community issues. Contrasting human resources with natural resources was unnecessary because, in essence, nature must be able to sustain human life. Likewise, human resources, with all their wisdom, must be able to protect the sustainability of nature. State policies to protect or exploit nature could conflict with humans themselves, namely, local communities. Therefore, policies issued by the government must be transparent, participatory, and equitable. Transparency, encouraging equitable policymaking, and ensuring participatory mechanisms were crucial to resolving agrarian conflicts fairly and sustainably. 53 Conclusions Taking the case of the contestation over forest management in Mount Halimun Salak National Park and Sungai Utik Forest, it was clear that the power relations between local communities and the state were unequal. The state commodifies local knowledge about forest management and other natural resources by introducing new knowledge and development programs (in line with Escobar’s concept of “Knowledge Regimes”). At the intellectual level, state hegemony over local communities occurred (referring to Gramsci’s concept of hegemony). Therefore, contesting natural resources involves three systems: the state, local communities, and corporations, creating a power imbalance where each party fights for rights to forest management (referring to Foucault’s concept of power relations). This contestation gave rise to power networks. The contestation over access rights to forest resources in these two forests produces two different models of power networks. These power networks were formed in response to local communities’ contestation over forest access rights with other parties. Cultural differences, differences in the meaning of forests, and the role of local governments produce different power networks. These different models of power relations also produce different outcomes in conflict resolution. Local communities in Mount Halimun Salak National Park reached a point in negotiations that resulted in limited access rights to activities supporting national park programs. Meanwhile, local communities in Sungai Utik Forest obtained full access rights, not because the state granted them, but because of legal support obtained through collaboration with various national and international parties. This model can be generalized and adopted elsewhere, provided that the location has local communities with similar characteristics: local wisdom, the ability to consolidate internally, the ability to build community solidarity that generates social capital, and the presence of NGOs that accompany them in negotiations, alliances, collaborations, advocacy networks, and legal support. Future research can be conducted on collaborative and innovative governance in sustainable forest management. This study makes a significant contribution to the sociology of governance, political ecology, indigenous peoples’ rights, and forest resource governance.

Continue reading READ ALL Article Summary The study investigates forest resource conflicts in Indonesia between the state and local communities through the lens of Foucault’s power relations and Gramsci’s hegemony theories. It uses a comparative case study of Mount Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS) and the Sungai Utik customary forest to map different "webs of power". The results show that top-down conservation policies in TNGHS led to community subordination and loss of access, while Sungai Utik achieved a more egalitarian model through strong community solidarity and legal recognition of customary systems. 1. Timely and Relevant Topic: This research is highly timely as Indonesia continues to grapple with the legal implementation of customary forest rights ( hutan adat ) following significant judicial and legislative shifts. The study addresses the globally relevant tension between "fortress conservation" (top-down exclusion) and "inclusive governance," making it pertinent for international readers interested in the 30x30 global conservation targets. By focusing on "webs of power," it provides a contemporary sociological framework for understanding how marginalized communities navigate the "Social Forestry" era in Indonesia. Such an approach is particularly relevant for international policymakers, researchers, and practitioners seeking balanced strategies for achieving global conservation objectives while minimizing conflicts with local and indigenous communities. 2. Comparative Case Study Design : The research effectively employs a comparative case study method to analyze different forest management orientations: the conservation-oriented TNGHS and the industrially oriented Sungai Utik. This design is a significant strength, as it allows for "cross-location exploration" that simultaneously considers macro, meso, and micro dimensions of power. The use of two distinct sites provides a robust basis for generating generalized lessons from specific historical experiences. 3. Theoretical Grounding : The study is strongly grounded in established social theories through a sophisticated triangulation of analytical perspectives. At the micro level, Michel Foucault’s theory of power relations is employed to examine how discourse, knowledge, and institutional practices shape the behavior and responses of local communities, while at the macro level, Antonio Gramsci’s theory of hegemony is applied to explain forms of state domination and their influence on local socio-political structures. The integration of these theoretical perspectives within the Organic, Capitalist, and Technological regimes offers a comprehensive framework for analyzing the socio-ecological systems across both study locations. 3. Methodological Rigor: The study employs a rigorous and transparent methodological approach using purposive sampling involving ten informants from each location representing five categories of stakeholders, including customary leaders, government representatives, non-governmental organizations, and community actors. To enhance the validity and reliability of the findings, the study applies triangulation of both data sources, including interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs), and theoretical perspectives. The data were systematically analyzed using thematic analysis based on the six-stage framework developed by Braun and Clarke (2012), which was clearly operationalized and presented in Table 1. Furthermore, the study demonstrates strong ethical compliance through formal research approval procedures and the acquisition of written informed consent from all informants. 4. Clarity of Contribution: The article makes a clear contribution to the fields of political ecology and sociology of governance. It explicitly addresses a gap in existing literature by focusing on how marginalized communities actively fight for their rights by creating power networks. The identification of two distinct "web of power" models (one state-dominated and one egalitarian/solidarity-based) provides a valuable conceptual tool for future research. 5. Depth of Comparative Analysis: The comparative analysis is detailed and insightful, as summarized in Table 2. It contrasts the "top-down" exclusionary policies in TNGHS with the "inclusive conservation model" in Sungai Utik . The analysis goes beyond simple comparison by examining the "discourse clash" between state narratives of "techno-nature" and community narratives of "organic nature" . 6. Policy Implications: The study offers significant policy implications for natural resource governance in Indonesia. It advocates for a transition from centralistic, exclusionary conservation to more "equitable and inclusive" models. The findings suggest that legal recognition of customary rights and the incorporation of local knowledge are essential for reducing conflict and ensuring sustainable forest management. Peer Review Evaluation 1. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite current literature? Answer: Partly Comment : While the article is clearly presented and provides a strong theoretical foundation using Foucault and Gramsci, it only partly fulfills the requirement for citing current literature. A significant portion of the references and the data collection period (2020) are several years old. To be considered fully current in the context of Indonesian forestry policy and global political ecology studies, the authors should incorporate more recent scholarship and policy updates from the 2023–2025 period. Constructive Detail: Update Literature: The authors should include recent studies (2023–2025) on the implementation of Indonesia's Omnibus Law (Job Creation Law) and its specific impacts on customary forest recognition and national park management. Recent Comparative Studies: Integrate 2024–2025 research regarding global trends in "inclusive natural resource governance" to better contextualize the findings within the current international academic discourse. Policy Context: Update the status of the IUPHHK (timber utilization permits) mentioned in the Sungai Utik case to reflect any regulatory changes or revocations. 2. Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? Answer: Yes Comment The qualitative comparative case study design is highly appropriate for mapping the complexities of power. Comparing a National Park with an industrially managed forest allows for a robust analysis of different power configurations. 3. Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication? Answer: Yes Comment: The methodology is transparent, detailing purposive sampling, the list of informants, and the specific interview guiding questions. The thematic analysis stages are well-defined. 4. If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Answer: Not applicable Comment: The study is qualitative; no statistical testing was required. 5. Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? Answer: Yes Comment: Table 1 provides an excellent audit trail of the thematic analysis, showing the transformation of raw keywords from the raw data into final themes. This provides sufficient transparency for qualitative reproducibility. 6. Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? Answer: Yes Comment: The conclusion that community solidarity acts as a "counter-hegemony" to state power is well-supported by the Sungai Utik case study evidence. Recommendation: To transition this article to a fully "Approved" status, the following points must be addressed: Literature Update (Critical): Integrate at least 5–7 references from 2023–2025. These should specifically focus on the recent evolution of Indonesia’s "Social Forestry" program and the impact of the Job Creation Law (Omnibus Law ) on customary land rights. Refine "Techno-nature" Concept: Clarify how this framework specifically interacts with the "Organic" regime in TNGHS to ensure theoretical robustness. Conflict Status Update: Provide an update on whether the IUPHHK permits in Sungai Utik have faced any recent legal changes to ensure the "latent conflict" analysis reflects the 2026 context. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Partly Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? Yes Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? Yes If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Not applicable Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? Yes Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? Yes Competing Interests: No competing interests were disclosed. Reviewer Expertise: My research area focuses on the intersection of Public Management, Good Governance, and Social Equity, specifically exploring how institutional frameworks and public policies can be designed to empower marginalized groups such as women and persons with disabilities. By integrating expertise in Public Policy and Public Sector Finance, I analyse the "webs of power" within administrative structures to ensure that governance is inclusive, transparent, and conducive to sustainable economic drivers like entrepreneurship. This background aligns directly with the reviewed article, as it provides a robust lens through which to evaluate the struggle for resource access rights and the role of community solidarity in challenging exclusionary state-led management regimes. I confirm that I have read this submission and believe that I have an appropriate level of expertise to confirm that it is of an acceptable scientific standard, however I have significant reservations, as outlined above.

Continue reading READ ALL The paper investigates how power relations shape conflicts over forest access in Indonesia. Using a qualitative comparative case study approach, the authors analyze Mount Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS) in West Java and the Sungai Utik customary forest in West Kalimantan. In TNGHS , expansion of the national park (from 40,000 to 113,357 hectares) restricted indigenous Kasepuhan communities’ access, creating conflict between conservation policies and local livelihoods. In Sungai Utik , conflict stemmed from a state-issued industrial forest permit (IUPHHK) overlapping with customary lands. Despite the permit not being revoked, recognition of customary rights and strong community solidarity fostered more egalitarian power relations. The study highlights that forests are not only ecological assets but also contested political spaces. Power relations are dynamic, shaped by state legitimacy, customary rights, NGO advocacy, and community resistance. The authors conclude that inclusive governance requires recognizing local knowledge, balancing ecological conservation with socio-cultural needs, and addressing asymmetries in power. Timely and relevant topic : The paper addresses pressing issues of forest governance, indigenous rights, and conservation conflicts in Indonesia, with broader implications for global environmental governance. Comparative case study design : Juxtaposing conservation-oriented (TNGHS) and industrial-oriented (Sungai Utik) contexts enriches the analysis and demonstrates the variability of power networks. Theoretical grounding : The integration of Foucault’s relational power and Gramsci’s hegemony provides a strong conceptual lens for analyzing contestation and resistance. Methodological rigor : Use of triangulation (data sources, methods, theories) strengthens validity. Thematic analysis is well-structured, with clear coding and theme development. Clarity of contribution : While the study maps power relations, the paper could more explicitly articulate how its findings advance theory in political ecology or governance studies. Depth of comparative analysis : The two cases are described well, but the cross-case synthesis could be expanded to highlight similarities and differences more systematically. Policy implications : The discussion touches on inclusive governance but could provide more concrete recommendations for policymakers, especially regarding balancing conservation mandates with indigenous rights. Literature engagement : Some references are mentioned broadly (e.g., REDD+ in Vietnam, land grabbing in India), but the connection to the Indonesian cases could be more critically developed. Improve flow in the Introduction , which currently lists multiple global examples; synthesizing them into thematic clusters would enhance readability. Clarify terminology (e.g., “dualism of legitimacy” and “dualism of power”) with consistent definitions. Tables and figures could be used more effectively to visualize the web of power networks. ✅ Overall Recommendation The article presents a valuable and well-structured study on forest governance conflicts in Indonesia. With revisions to strengthen comparative insights and policy relevance, it has strong potential for indexing after peer review. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Partly Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? Partly Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? Partly If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate?

Clarity of Contribution: The article makes a clear contribution to the fields of political ecology and sociology of governance. It explicitly addresses a gap in existing literature by focusing on how marginalized communities actively fight for their rights by creating power networks. The identification of two distinct "web of power" models (one state-dominated and one egalitarian/solidarity-based) provides a valuable conceptual tool for future research. 5. Depth of Comparative Analysis: The comparative analysis is detailed and insightful, as summarized in Table 2. It contrasts the "top-down" exclusionary policies in TNGHS with the "inclusive conservation model" in Sungai Utik . The analysis goes beyond simple comparison by examining the "discourse clash" between state narratives of "techno-nature" and community narratives of "organic nature" . 6. Policy Implications: The study offers significant policy implications for natural resource governance in Indonesia. It advocates for a transition from centralistic, exclusionary conservation to more "equitable and inclusive" models. The findings suggest that legal recognition of customary rights and the incorporation of local knowledge are essential for reducing conflict and ensuring sustainable forest management. Peer Review Evaluation 1. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite current literature? Answer: Partly Comment : While the article is clearly presented and provides a strong theoretical foundation using Foucault and Gramsci, it only partly fulfills the requirement for citing current literature. A significant portion of the references and the data collection period (2020) are several years old. To be considered fully current in the context of Indonesian forestry policy and global political ecology studies, the authors should incorporate more recent scholarship and policy updates from the 2023–2025 period. Constructive Detail: Update Literature: The authors should include recent studies (2023–2025) on the implementation of Indonesia's Omnibus Law (Job Creation Law) and its specific impacts on customary forest recognition and national park management. Recent Comparative Studies: Integrate 2024–2025 research regarding global trends in "inclusive natural resource governance" to better contextualize the findings within the current international academic discourse. Policy Context: Update the status of the IUPHHK (timber utilization permits) mentioned in the Sungai Utik case to reflect any regulatory changes or revocations. 2. Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? Answer: Yes Comment The qualitative comparative case study design is highly appropriate for mapping the complexities of power. Comparing a National Park with an industrially managed forest allows for a robust analysis of different power configurations. 3. Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication? Answer: Yes Comment: The methodology is transparent, detailing purposive sampling, the list of informants, and the specific interview guiding questions. The thematic analysis stages are well-defined. 4. If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Answer: Not applicable Comment: The study is qualitative; no statistical testing was required. 5. Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? Answer: Yes Comment: Table 1 provides an excellent audit trail of the thematic analysis, showing the transformation of raw keywords from the raw data into final themes. This provides sufficient transparency for qualitative reproducibility. 6. Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? Answer: Yes Comment: The conclusion that community solidarity acts as a "counter-hegemony" to state power is well-supported by the Sungai Utik case study evidence. Recommendation: To transition this article to a fully "Approved" status, the following points must be addressed: Literature Update (Critical): Integrate at least 5–7 references from 2023–2025. These should specifically focus on the recent evolution of Indonesia’s "Social Forestry" program and the impact of the Job Creation Law (Omnibus Law ) on customary land rights. Refine "Techno-nature" Concept: Clarify how this framework specifically interacts with the "Organic" regime in TNGHS to ensure theoretical robustness. Conflict Status Update: Provide an update on whether the IUPHHK permits in Sungai Utik have faced any recent legal changes to ensure the "latent conflict" analysis reflects the 2026 context. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Partly Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? Yes Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? Yes If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Not applicable Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? Yes Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? Yes Competing Interests No competing interests were disclosed. Reviewer Expertise My research area focuses on the intersection of Public Management, Good Governance, and Social Equity, specifically exploring how institutional frameworks and public policies can be designed to empower marginalized groups such as women and persons with disabilities. By integrating expertise in Public Policy and Public Sector Finance, I analyse the "webs of power" within administrative structures to ensure that governance is inclusive, transparent, and conducive to sustainable economic drivers like entrepreneurship. This background aligns directly with the reviewed article, as it provides a robust lens through which to evaluate the struggle for resource access rights and the role of community solidarity in challenging exclusionary state-led management regimes. I confirm that I have read this submission and believe that I have an appropriate level of expertise to confirm that it is of an acceptable scientific standard, however I have significant reservations, as outlined above. reply Respond to this report Responses (0) Arshad R.

Not approved Fundamental flaws in the paper seriously undermine the findings and conclusions The paper investigates how power relations shape conflicts over forest access in Indonesia. Using a qualitative comparative case study approach, the authors analyze Mount Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS) in West Java and the Sungai Utik customary forest in West Kalimantan. In TNGHS , expansion of the national park (from 40,000 to 113,357 hectares) restricted indigenous Kasepuhan communities’ access, creating conflict between conservation policies and local livelihoods. In Sungai Utik , conflict stemmed from a state-issued industrial forest permit (IUPHHK) overlapping with customary lands. Despite the permit not being revoked, recognition of customary rights and strong community solidarity fostered more egalitarian power relations. The study highlights that forests are not only ecological assets but also contested political spaces. Power relations are dynamic, shaped by state legitimacy, customary rights, NGO advocacy, and community resistance. The authors conclude that inclusive governance requires recognizing local knowledge, balancing ecological conservation with socio-cultural needs, and addressing asymmetries in power. Timely and relevant topic : The paper addresses pressing issues of forest governance, indigenous rights, and conservation conflicts in Indonesia, with broader implications for global environmental governance. Comparative case study design : Juxtaposing conservation-oriented (TNGHS) and industrial-oriented (Sungai Utik) contexts enriches the analysis and demonstrates the variability of power networks. Theoretical grounding : The integration of Foucault’s relational power and Gramsci’s hegemony provides a strong conceptual lens for analyzing contestation and resistance. Methodological rigor : Use of triangulation (data sources, methods, theories) strengthens validity. Thematic analysis is well-structured, with clear coding and theme development. Clarity of contribution : While the study maps power relations, the paper could more explicitly articulate how its findings advance theory in political ecology or governance studies. Depth of comparative analysis : The two cases are described well, but the cross-case synthesis could be expanded to highlight similarities and differences more systematically. Policy implications : The discussion touches on inclusive governance but could provide more concrete recommendations for policymakers, especially regarding balancing conservation mandates with indigenous rights. Literature engagement : Some references are mentioned broadly (e.g., REDD+ in Vietnam, land grabbing in India), but the connection to the Indonesian cases could be more critically developed. Improve flow in the Introduction , which currently lists multiple global examples; synthesizing them into thematic clusters would enhance readability. Clarify terminology (e.g., “dualism of legitimacy” and “dualism of power”) with consistent definitions. Tables and figures could be used more effectively to visualize the web of power networks. ✅ Overall Recommendation The article presents a valuable and well-structured study on forest governance conflicts in Indonesia.
