农民专业合作社在农村环境治理中的作用探究

随着我国经济发展,农村环境问题已经成为农村发展所面临的一个重要问题.国家一号文件和政府报告提到了“农村生态文明”、“美丽乡村”的美好愿景,农村环境问题越来越受到重视.但目前对于环境问题的学术研究多集中于城市环境问题,对农村环境问题的研究相对较少.本文基于已有研究对农村环境所存在的问题进行分类总结;并基于公共物品治理的视角分析了农村环境的公共物品属性,从公共物品的供给困境及外部性两方面对农村环境问题治理困境进行分析;最后,笔者提出以农民专业合作社为责任主体来治理农村环境问题的中心观点,给出充分的理论支撑和实践依据,并详细分析了农民专业合作社在农村环境治理中应具有的“环境”功能.
