While restoration ecology has traditionally aimed to re-create some
putative more 'natural' ecological state, forest landscape
restoration (FLR) has emerged over the last decade as an approach
aimed more at restoring natural functions, while focusing on
meeting human needs. With a view to exploring the practical
potential of this approach, this book draws together a team of
experts from the natural and social sciences to discuss its success
so far in addressing critical issues such as biodiversity,
ecological function, and human livelihoods. Applying principles of
landscape ecology, restoration ecology, planning theory and
conflict management, the book presents a series of case studies
which document the approach, and discusses how the approach can
help with priority setting for the future. The book will provide a
valuable reference to graduate students and researchers interested
in ecological restoration, forest ecology and management, as well
as to professionals in environmental restoration, natural resource
management, conservation, and environmental policy.
