Abstract
The use and management of natural resources in the rainforest margins of Central Sulawesi has become a focus of national and international research very recently. That is because the area was always located in a political and economic periphery and the pressure on the rainforest resources had been relatively low. But nowadays the awareness of resource management of tropical rainforests has risen. Deforestation has got worldwide attention mainly because of its climatic relevance. Also a growing population pressure in Indonesia accompanied by an actual political and economic transformation process has intensified the impacts on the resources in Central Sulawesi. Especially during the last two decades the migration into the region has increased and strengthened the pressure on the access to land. But the foundations for the cultural landscape happened much earlier. These historically developed patterns of population and settlement structure lead to different attitudes of today’s resource management and effects on land use in the region. The reflection of the processes, which show the way to a local differentiation of resource management around the Lore Lindu National Park, is stressed in this paper and will be exemplified with micro studies at the village level. The paper focuses on the external and internal impacts on the shape of the cultural landscape during different historical periods of the last century and reflects the demographic development as well as the land use changes in the region.
