In 1864 in India, the British Raj established the Imperial Forest
Department. Social forestry got a major boost in the early 1980s,
initiating a new approach to deal with the problem of biotic
interference on forest land. A great change was made in forest and
forestry management for the protection and development of forests,
where Forest Protection Committees (FPCs) were formed by villagers,
following the Arabari Model Community forest experiment in West
Bengal, for usufruct rights and revenue sharing, which is unique in
the history of forest management in the world. Ethics of
Biodiversity Conservation takes a unique longitudinal view of this
important forestry management case study. Today, increasing human
population, growing industrialization, pollution, and climate
change, creates the challenge of determining ways and means of
ensuring that biodiversity conservation is an integral part of
forest management.
