Forest Policy Analysis

The book explores the evolving landscape of forest policy across Europe, highlighting the varying emphasis placed on forestry based on national economic contexts. While timber production remains significant, there is a growing demand for non-wood products and sustainable management that balances diverse interests. The increasing complexity of stakeholder relationships, encompassing both governmental and non-governmental organizations, reflects a shift towards collaborative approaches in forest management. Additionally, many forest policy issues now require negotiation beyond national borders, emphasizing their transboundary nature.
