Hard to find a comparable reading where the author is digging deep into forest development policy while at the same time providing a high-level analysis and focused quantitative and qualitative results on a complex matter. The author discovered numerous highly relevant theories as well as inspiring cases about forests and people from around the world. The mosaic of theoretical and empirical knowledge has already found important readers. A central dimension of the analytical research is the focus on ?change? rather than ?development? and on the role of various actors in creating or preventing ?change?. While the book aims at explaining parts of the complex reality of forest development policy, it does not shy to describe and compare the results with various normative beliefs and concepts on how development cooperation should/must look like. All individual theoretical arguments and empirical proofs are well based and shed light into the political process of forest development policy. Both readers with theoretical interests as well as readers interested in forest issues from the point of view of practice will discover important information and inspiring thoughts in the book. This book is the publication of the doctoral thesis of the author, being based on a project that provided praxis relevant advice to policy makers and forestry experts. The scientific board was highly pleased by the theoretical sound and empirical rich arguments of the book. 410 0$aWorld Forests,$x0785-8388 ;$v13 606 $aForest policy 606 $aForests and forestry 615 0$aForest policy. 615 0$aForests and forestry. 676 $a634.95 700 $aAurenhammer$b Peter$01060484 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437850403321 996 $aDevelopment Cooperation Policy in Forestry from an Analytical Perspective$92513722 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05122nam 2200673 a 450 001 9911019396703321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786613281111 010 $a9781283281119 010 $a1283281112 010 $a9781118032633 010 $a1118032632 010 $a9781118030882 010 $a1118030885 035 $a(CKB)2550000000052728 035 $a(EBL)694624 035 $a(OCoLC)761321852 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000535330 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11359086 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000535330 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10522617 035 $a(PQKB)10816127 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC694624 035 $a(PPN)250683997 035 $a(Perlego)2756741 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000052728 100 $a19960628d1996 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aConformal differential geometry and its generalizations /$fMaks A.
