Wood-pastures are important elements of European cultural identity
and have an exceptional ecological value, yet they are in decline
all over Europe. The structure of wood-pastures is strongly
influenced by grazing and multiple other land uses and by local and
regional environmental conditions. This book examines the diverse
expressions of wood-pastures across Europe. It provides a new
perspective, using a social-ecological framework to explore social
and ecological values, governing institutions, threats and
conservation approaches. It explores the major drivers of decline,
which are shown to be related to accelerated cultural,
institutional and developmental changes occurring across Europe
over the past century. Case studies are included from
North-Western, Southern, and Eastern Europe. Written by renowned
scholars and conservationists, the book contributes to developing
better, locally adapted conservation policies and management
approaches for wood-pastures.
