Abstract: Due to the unclear delineation of the regulatory power and ownership of national parks under the administrative management system, the management of property rights of natural resource assets owned by the whole people in national parks generally faces problems such as insufficient legitimacy of ownership authorization and poor implementation mechanisms of ownership. Through the analysis of the property rights structure characteristics and the definition of management responsibilities of natural resource assets owned by the whole people in national parks, starting from the legal analysis of rights (powers) and their exercise models, this paper clarifies the boundaries of ownership and regulatory rights of national park state-owned natural resource assets from the perspectives of management objectives and content, legal nature and application, exercise subjects and models, and responsibilities. Based on the actual situation of national park protection, construction, and management, 24 owner responsibilities of natural resource assets in national parks are proposed, with a focus on two key issues, namely, the division of responsibilities for technical work according to the purpose of execution, and the exercise of national park franchise rights as a civil right in a delegated agency model. Finally, suggestions for the implementation of owner responsibilities are proposed from the perspectives of ideology, legal system, and mechanism, providing technical references for the systematic, legal, and standardized management of natural resource assets owned by the whole people in national parks.
