“…Fruits, seeds, stem bark, roots, and plant organ parameter are the primary plant body components whose misuse causes detrimental ecological effects on the species. Regarding fruits, it is possible that they will have an effect on the regeneration process since, as Kokou [ 36 ] states, the availability of seeds is one factor that maintains the capacity for regeneration. Fruit consumption on a regular basis (11.3%) thus makes species like Garcinia kola and Capsicum frutescens more vulnerable.…”

Les facteurs climatiques et anthropiques sont à l’origine de la régression de la population de nombreuses espèces ligneuses en zone soudanienne. Anogeissus leiocarpa, Bombax costatum et Detarium microcarpum sont des espèces qui ont une importance socio-économique avérée et donc elles se révèlent être vulnérables. L’évaluation comparée de l’état des peuplements des trois espèces dans les aires protégées et non protégées suivant le gradient climatique permettra de disposer d’informations utiles pour leur gestion durable. La structure des populations a été évaluée à partir d’inventaires forestiers basés sur un échantillonnage aléatoire à travers des parcelles rectangulaires de 1000 m². Les individus dont le diamètre du tronc à 1,3 m de hauteur est supérieur ou égal à 5 cm ont été mesurés. La régénération (individus à D1,3 m < 5 cm) a été comptée par classe de hauteur dans des sous-placettes de 25 m². Les densités et les surfaces terrières des trois espèces varient significativement suivant le gradient de protection dans chaque secteur climatique. A. leiocarpa et D. microcarpum possèdent de bonnes structures démographiques dans les deux secteurs climatiques soudaniens, indépendamment du type d’utilisation de terres. Seule la densité de B. costatum montre une différence significative le long du gradient climatique entre les aires protégées. L’étude révèle l’importance des aires protégées dans la conservation de ces espèces vulnérables.Mots clés : Burkina Faso, zone soudanienne, aires protégées, aires non protégées, espèces vulnérables, conservation. Climate and land use types are mainly responsible for the decline of many woody species in Sudanian areas. Anogeissus leiocarpa, Bombax costatum and Detarium microcarpum are high-value but vulnerable species due to the anthropogenic pressure. The compared assessment of the state of the targeted species in the protected and unprotected areas along the climatic gradient will provide information that could help implementing sustainable management of these species. The population structures were evaluated from forest inventories based on a random sampling through rectangular plots of 1000 m². The adult individuals of each species with diameters ≥ 5 cm at 1.30 m of heigh were measured. The juvenile individual with diameters that were less than 5 cm were counted and classified into height classes within plots size of 25 m². The structural characteristic of the targeted species vary significantly between land uses within each climatic zone. A. leiocarpa and D. microcarpum showed a stable population structure between the two climatic sectors, irrespective of management regimes. Only density of B. costatum shows a significant difference in the PAs and along climatic gradient. The study reveals the importance of protected areas for these vulnerable species conservations.Keywords: Burkina Faso, Sudanian zone, protected areas, unprotected areas, vulnerable species, conservation.

“…Considerable research has been done on the sacred groves that have survived in India today, and Bhagwat et al () argue that these can be considered informal protected areas due to their role in biodiversity conservation. Scholars spanning a range of disciplines have also produced research on sacred forests (to which access and exploitation were limited to varying degrees) in different parts of Africa, as well (see Chouin ; Juhé‐Beaulaton ; Kouami et al ; Mgumia and Oba ). Whilst the treatment of such pre‐colonial protected areas in mediaeval Europe is less problematic for the postcolonial paradigm, as one can sketch a linear progression from the internal colonising and state‐forming forces of the High Middle Ages to the Colonial conquests in the periphery [and indeed, the terminologies and actors that came to be associated with colonial and postcolonial national parks have antecedents in pre‐colonial protected areas; ‘Ranger’, for example, was a title and a function that emerged in the fourteenth century with the enforcement of forest charters in England's royal forests (Cox ) and bears many parallels to today's park rangers], the myriad ‘protected areas’ in other regions, which are not implicated in European colonialism, present a delicate challenge.…”

The dramatic increase in protected areas worldwide and their use as sites of nature‐based tourism has provoked many postcolonial analyses of protected areas. This paper reviews the critical literature on protected areas, including the literatures that analyse the implication of tourism in legitimating protected areas. This paper employs a historical analysis of the use and creation of protected areas to problematise a strict postcolonial reading of protected areas and proposes the metageography of enclavisation as a new lens though which to analyse protected areas. This paper argues that treating protected areas as inter‐connected, ‘globalised’ enclaves comports with other developments within political geography (such as territorialisation and land grabbing) and opens up new possibilities for understanding the spatialities of protected areas.
