Abstract

There is a growing call for comparative analyses of forest governance to facilitate knowledge exchange for the sustainable management of Nordic forest systems, addressing the needs of societal stakeholders in enhancing both the quality and quantity of forest resources. This study traces the development of nation-wide policy instruments implemented in four Nordic countries; Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark between 1970 and 2023, based on interviews among forest policy scholars and other research experts. Using an analytical framework that highlights the relations between policy intervention, change, impact, and learning, we compare central government practices and private actor initiatives in the Nordic countries that address the ecological, social, and economic values of forests. We find a common trend towards multifunctionality and soft governance as well as differences in the use of economic instruments and certification standardization. This study also considers insights into developments in Nordic forest governance, the enabling and impeding factors for past trends and outcomes and discusses the learning of this change towards equity in the multifunctional use of forests.
比较北欧森林治理:关键信息者视角
越来越多的人呼吁对森林治理进行比较分析,以促进北欧森林系统可持续管理方面的知识交流,满足社会利益攸关方在提高森林资源的质量和数量方面的需要。本研究追溯了四个北欧国家实施的全国性政策工具的发展;根据对森林政策学者和其他研究专家的采访,芬兰、瑞典、挪威和丹麦在1970年至2023年之间。我们使用一个分析框架,突出政策干预、变化、影响和学习之间的关系,比较了北欧国家中央政府在解决森林的生态、社会和经济价值方面的做法和私人行动者的倡议。我们发现了多功能和软治理的共同趋势,以及在使用经济工具和认证标准化方面的差异。本研究还考虑了对北欧森林治理发展的见解,过去趋势和结果的促成和阻碍因素,并讨论了在森林多功能利用方面朝向公平的这种变化的学习。
