Book excerpt: Espace stratégique de l’économie canadienne, la forêt publique est, on le sait, gérée par les provinces et par les grandes entreprises forestières. Pourtant, elle abrite aussi plus de 300 communautés dites « dépendantes de la forêt », qui peuvent elles aussi aspirer à participer à la gouvernance de la forêt. À partir des exemples du Québec (régions de la Capitale-Nationale et de l’Outaouais) ainsi que du Nouveau-Brunswick (région de Madawaska-Restigouche), l’ouvrage explore les façons dont ces communautés réussissent à s’insérer dans les politiques forestières. L’analyse interroge leur capacité locale d’action, c’est-à-dire leur affirmation comme des territoires à part entière, dans des logiques sectorielles d’action publique. Les chapitres réunis ici permettent ainsi une lecture « par le bas » des politiques forestières dans deux provinces canadiennes, complétant une littérature plutôt centrée sur le poids déterminant des marchés internationaux et des régimes forestiers provinciaux.

This book was released on 2013-01-22T00:00:00-05:00 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les forêts publiques québécoises font face, depuis plusieurs années, à une crise profonde qui touche l’état de santé de ce patrimoine public et de ce moteur économique de plusieurs régions périphériques. La question de la gouvernance locale des forêts se pose ainsi avec force, d’autant plus que la dernière refonte du régime forestier a attribué une plus grande place aux acteurs locaux et régionaux dans la planification des usages du territoire public forestier. Alliant l’étude de la gouvernance locale et les sciences forestières, une approche peu commune qui gagnerait à, être utilisée, ce livre se penche sur les nouveaux modes de gouvernance forestière dans les régions périphériques du Québec. Plus particulièrement, il porte sur six cas de gouvernance locale des forêts en Abitibi-Témiscamingue et en Outaouais. Les auteurs s’attardent non seulement à documenter ces initiatives, mais aussi à évaluer leur contribution au développement régional selon trois perspectives précises, celle du travail, celle de la qualité de l’environnement et celle de l’intégration des groupes marginalisés. Leurs textes révèlent le rôle des divers acteurs qui participent à ces projets, tout comme les mécanismes qui assurent la coordination de leurs réseaux d’action.

Book excerpt: La thèse a pour objectif de contribuer à l'étude des changements de la politique forestière française depuis le début des années 1990 à travers l'analyse des changements d'échelle de l'action publique. Elle s'appuie dans ce but sur un cadre théorique et analytique inspiré des travaux en sociologie politique et en institutionnalisme historique. La mise en problématique du rapport secteur - territoire conduit d'une part à s'interroger sur la reconfiguration du modèle de l'Etat forestier centré sur l'échelle nationale et d'autre part à émettre l'hypothèse de l'institutionnalisation de l'échelle infranationale. Le travail d'enquête qui a été réalisé, sur la base notamment d'une série d'entretiens menés en Aquitaine, permet d'aboutir à deux résultats principaux et à une conclusion générale. Tout d'abord, on peut faire le constat que le secteur forestier connaît actuellement une phase de mutation importante. Il est engagé dans un double processus d'écologisation qui se traduit par un renforcement de la tension entre logique de production de bois et logique de conservation de la ressource forestière et par une remise en question de l'efficacité des politiques du passé. Ensuite, et en dépit de la décentralisation, il apparaît que cette mutation s'accompagne d'un renforcement de la légitimité de l'échelle nationale de gouvernement au détriment de l'échelle infranationale. Dans ce contexte, le rôle des acteurs publics est ambigu. L'Etat alterne entre volontarisme politique et désengagement opérationnel alors que les conseils régionaux s'impliquent de plus en plus dans la mise en œuvre des politiques publiques forestières. Pour finir, nous considérons que cette situation ne correspond pas à une désectorisation de la forêt mais plutôt à une mise sous tension de la dimension territoriale de la politique sectorielle forestière. Une étude comparable sur la nature du gouvernement européen de la forêt permettrait ainsi d'approfondir l'analyse.
Download or read book Governing Africa s Forests in a Globalized World written by Laura Anne German and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many countries around the world are engaged in decentralization processes, and most African countries face serious problems with forest governance, from benefits sharing to illegality and sustainable forest management. This book summarizes experiences to date on the extent and nature of decentralization and its outcomes - most of which suggest an underperformance of governance reforms - and explores the viability of different governance instruments in the context of weak governance and expanding commercial pressures over forests. Findings are grouped into two thematic areas: decentralization, livelihoods and sustainable forest management; and international trade, finance and forest sector governance reforms. The authors examine diverse forces shaping the forest sector, including the theory and practice of decentralization, usurpation of authority, corruption and illegality, inequitable patterns of benefits capture and expansion of international trade in timber and carbon credits, and discuss related outcomes on livelihoods, forest condition and equity. The book builds on earlier volumes exploring different dimensions of decentralization and perspectives from other world regions, and distills dimensions of forest governance that are both unique to Africa and representative of broader global patterns. The authors ground their analysis in relevant theory while drawing out implications of their findings for policy and practice.
Download or read book The context of REDD in the Democratic Republic of Congo written by Kengoum, F. and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2020-10-20 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DRC has committed to reduce its emissions effectively, efficiently, and equitably from deforestation and degradation (REDD+). The country experiences complex relationships between drivers, agents, and institutions of deforestation nationally. The REDD+ policy arena is influenced by both governmental and non-governmental actors whose number have increased in the policy arena over the years; however, weak coordination among these actors remains an issue. Since 2009, the DRC has announced several reforms relating to land tenure, land-use planning and agricultural policy, to create an institutional environment that motivates the implementation of REDD+ in the DRC. By 2019, none of these reforms had materialized, due to both political changes and a lack of finance, capacity, and political will. Between 2013 and 2019, little progress has been made on REDD+ in the DRC, as a result of conflicting interests among actors both at national and decentralized levels; information asymmetry; elite capture and corruption; and the pre- and post-election situation. To date, the effectiveness of REDD+ activities in the DRC remain unclear, due to the absence of rigorous impact assessment. However, efforts can be observed on the field where there is increased number of participants to forest policy process compared to REDD+ early years; and several ongoing projects are testing policy options within and across levels. If these efforts are sustained, they can contribute in putting in place conditions to achieve REDD+ objectives.

Download or read book Forest and Nature Governance written by Bas Arts and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-22 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, problems such as deforestation, biodiversity loss and illegal logging have provoked various policy responses that are often referred to as forest and nature governance. In its broadest interpretation, governance is about the many ways in which public and private actors from the state, market and/or civil society govern public issues at multiple scales. This book takes a fresh perspective on the study of forest and nature governance. Departing from ‘practice theory’, and building upon scholars like Giddens, Bourdieu, Reckwitz, Schatzki and Callon, it seeks to move beyond established understandings of institutions, actors, and knowledge. In so doing, it not only presents an innovative conceptual and methodological framework for a practice based approach, but also rich case studies and ethnographies. Finally, this book is about how actors involved in governance talk about and work with trees, forests, biodiversity, wildlife, and so on, while acting upon forest policies, environmental discourses, codes of conduct, or scientific insights.
Download or read book The Mediterranean region under climate change written by Collectif and published by IRD Éditions. This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been published by Allenvi (French National Alliance for Environmental Research) to coincide with the 22nd Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP22) in Marrakesh. It is the outcome of work by academic researchers on both sides of the Mediterranean and provides a remarkable scientific review of the mechanisms of climate change and its impacts on the environment, the economy, health and Mediterranean societies. It will also be valuable in developing responses that draw on “scientific evidence” to address the issues of adaptation, resource conservation, solutions and risk prevention. Reflecting the full complexity of the Mediterranean environment, the book is a major scientific contribution to the climate issue, where various scientific considerations converge to break down the boundaries between disciplines.
Download or read book Community Forestry in Canada written by Sara Teitelbaum and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, community forestry has taken root across Canada. Locally run initiatives are lauded as welcome alternatives to large corporate and industrial logging practices, yet little research has been done to document their tangible outcomes or draw connections between their ideals of local control, community benefit, ecological stewardship, and economic diversification and the realities of community forestry practice. This book brings together the work of over twenty-five researchers to provide the first comparative and empirically rich portrait of community forestry policy and practice in Canada. Tackling all of the forestry regions from Newfoundland to British Columbia, it unearths the history of community forestry, revealing surprising regional differences linked to patterns of policy-making and cultural traditions. Case studies celebrate innovative practices in governance and ecological management while uncovering challenges related to government support and market access. The future of the sector is also considered, including the role of institutional reform, multiscale networks, and adaptive management strategies.

Download or read book The context of REDD in the Democratic Republic of Congo Drivers agents and institutions written by Augustin M. Mpoyi and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2013 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reviewing the conditions in which the Reduction of Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) mechanism is being established in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is part of Component 1 of the Global Comparative Study on REDD+ (GCS-REDD) being conducted by the Center for International Forestry Research. The overall aim of this global study is to provide decision-makers, practitioners, donors and the scientific community with reliable information on the dynamics of national actions related to the REDD+ mechanism. Discussions on REDD originally seemed to focus on the construction of a global structure and the establishment of a multilateral instrument to replace the Kyoto Protocol. But at the 14th Conference of Parties (CoP 14), held in Poznan in 2008, discussions on the reliability of REDD+ focused more on the dynamics of national- and local-level actions and brought out the need to better understand, analyze and explain the national institutional context of REDD+ development. Subsequently, this review used the extractive approaches. The first inputs were reports, articles, books and documents on the DRC that were directly related to forest management, socioeconomic and political institutions, etc., whether published or not. Because of the diversity of sources, the quantitative data sometimes seem contradictory and conflictual. In the next step, semi-structured interviews were held with experts working in the forestry sector and data were obtained from the participants observations. Since this analysis covers the period between May 2011 and June 2012 actions in the field and the institutions after those dates were not included.
