This extensive reference writes a modern history of forestry in
Japan, Indonesia, the Solomon Islands, and other Asian countries,
reflecting industrial and colonial exploitation, periods of
excessive deforestation, and the alienation of local residents from
natural resources. Drawing on their experience as "participant
observers" in local practice, the authors suggest new, "inclusive"
approaches to forestry governance that support sustainable
development, environmental preservation, and the productive
collaboration by various stakeholders. The mismatched interests of
local citizens and outsiders have split the development of Asia's
natural and cultural resources. Taking this complexity into
account, the essays in this volume advance a definition of
effective governance that achieves more than the successful
execution of resource management. It pursues a new vision of
society in which all stakeholders collaborate to govern the use of
certain resources. This volume outlines two key conditions for
effective resource management: sharing and commitment (or graduated
membership), which transcend mere material issues to determine the
social and cultural value of a resource.
