Based on an in-depth case study from the Yangliu watershed in Yunnan province, this chapter explores the underlying reasons for the SLCP’s environmental and economic successes by analysing how different stakeholders frame their justice concerns in the SLCP. It suggests that the SLCP has been successful because, among other factors, its implicit model of justice has sufficiently overlapped with local officials’ and villagers’ notions of justice.
