Northern Europe was, by many accounts, the birthplace of much of
modern forestry practice, and for hundreds of years the region's
woodlands have played an outsize role in international relations,
economic growth, and the development of national identity. Across
eleven chapters, the contributors to this volume survey the
histories of state forestry policy in Scandinavia, the Low
Countries, Germany, Poland, and Great Britain from the early modern
period to the present. Each explores the complex interrelationships
of state-building, resource management, knowledge transfer, and
trade over a period characterized by ongoing modernization and
evolving environmental awareness.
