Policies for Sustainable Forestry in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine provides a thorough analysis of the key factors in the transition process affecting the forest sector in the eponymous countries. Moreover, it designs new strategies for sustainable development in these areas. The book attempts to strengthen selected trends in the forest sector in each country so that they may gradually achieve sustainability and create a market economy. The key factors are identified by making use of several different sources: scientific papers, interviews with experts from the three countries and the personal experiences of the co-authors living in the countries. The strategies propose new and interesting options for improving forest management by optimizing forestry within closed production units. Further strategies deal with reorientation of forest planning, transition oriented labor management and acquisition of resources for forestry from state and markets. Policies for Sustainable Forestry in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine also gives new insights into the political factors and informal strategies within the forestry sector. It serves as an important addition to existing economic market models and will draw attention to the political process driving the transition.

In response to the increasing economic, ecological and social demands on forest resources and their sustainable management, national forest and environmental policies as well as the international forest regime are undergoing substantial changes. Policy reformulations, in turn, call for improved policy analyses and evaluations. In order to advance forest policy research, to establish and strengthen the network and collaboration between policy scientists and the institutions they represent, the European Forest Institute arranged an International Summer School on Forest Policy Analysis, in Joensuu, Finland, 2-8 June, 1996. These proceedings contain the reports prepared by the participants. They describe the diversity of present forest policy issues in the participaints'home countries as well as the ongoing policy formulation processes.
