Forests have histories that need to be told. This examination of
wood and woodlands in East and Southeast Asia brings together case
studies from China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Sumatra to explore
continuities in the history of forest management across these
regions as well as the distinctive qualities of human-forest
relations within each context. With a general introduction to
forest histories in East and Southeast Asia and a multidisciplinary
set of authors, The Cultivated Forest constructs alternative
lineages of forest knowledge that aim to transcend the frameworks
imposed by colonial or national histories. Across these regions,
forests were sites of exploitation, contestation, and ritual just
as they were in Europe and America. This volume puts studies of
Asian forests into conversation with global forest histories.
