Changes in production, demand, supply, and trade patterns; the
impact of green building and bioenergy on industry practices and
policy infrastructure; and new economies with production advantages
and large consumption bases all present challenges and
opportunities in the forest sector. With contributions from leading
experts in academia and professional organizations, The Global
Forest Sector: Changes, Practices, and Prospects fills a gap in the
literature that is preventing students, scholars, and policy makers
from developing a timely, structured, big-picture view of forest
sector business. In addition, the book reviews current thinking on
a wide variety of business management issues in the forest
sector.
The book covers managing change in the global forest sector and
the impact of globalization on forest users. It discusses markets
and market forces, new products and product categories, and the
influence of China and Russia. The book then examines the
environmental paradigm, including environmental activism,
sustainability, and the impact of green building and bioenergy. The
book concludes with coverage of the role of information technology,
corporate social responsibility, innovation, and next steps.
Overall, this book helps readers both develop a bird s eye view
of the changes surrounding the forest sector as well as have a
magnified view of numerous managerial issues associated with these
changes. The content paints a picture of the current and changing
forest sector including the state of forests, the nature of
markets, the newly emerged patterns of stakeholder impact, and
evolution of key business practices. It provides the foundation
needed to develop the conservation-based economy required for
future success in the global forest sector."
