Book excerpt: With tens of millions of hectares and hundreds of millions of lives in the balance, the debate over who should control South Asias forests is of tremendous political significance. This book provides an insightful and thorough assessment of important forest management transitions currently underway. MARK POFFENBERGER, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY FORESTRY INTERNATIONAL The contributions in this volume not only breathe life into the fi eld of writing and analysis related to forests, they do so on the strength of extraordinarily insightful research. Kudos to Springate-Baginski and Blaikie for providing us with a set of thoroughly researched, provocative studies that should be required reading not only for those interested in community forestry in south Asia, but in resource governance anywhere. ARUN AGRAWAL, ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF NATURAL RESOURCES & ENVIRONMENT, UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN, USA Makes a significant contribution to theory and practice of participatory forest management. YAM MALLA, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, REGIONAL COMMUNITY FORESTRY TRAINING CENTER FOR ASIA AND THE PACIFIC, BANGKOK This excellent and timely book provides thought-provoking insights to the issues of power and politics in forestry and the difficulties of transforming age-old structures that circumscribe the access of the poor to forests and their resources; it challenges our assumptions of the benefits of participatory forest management and the role of forestry in poverty reduction. It should be of interest to policy-makers and to all those who have been involved with the struggle of transforming forestry over the decades. DR MARY HOBLEY, HOBLEY SHIELDS ASSOCIATES (NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT AND PLANNING CONSULTANCY) A rare combination of extensive field study, social science insights and policy studies will be of immense value DR N. C. SAXENA, MEMBER OF NATIONAL ADVISORY COUNCIL, GOVERNMENT OF INDIA In recent decades participatory approaches to forest management have been introduced around the world. This book assesses their implementation in the highly politicized environments of India and Nepal. The authors critically examine the policy, implementation processes and causal factors affecting livelihood impacts. Considering narratives and field practice, with data from over 60 study villages and over 1000 household interviews, the book demonstrates why particular field outcomes have occurred and why policy reform often proves so difficult. Research findings on which the book is based are already influencing policy in India and Nepal, and the research and analysis have great relevance to forestry management in a wide range of countries.

Book Synopsis Participatory Forest Policies and Politics in India by : Manish Tiwary
Download or read book Participatory Forest Policies and Politics in India written by Manish Tiwary and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 2004. In a radical breakaway from colonial and postcolonial policies that were based on centralized and revenue-orientated control of forests, the government of India announced the Joint Forest Management (JFM) policy resolution in 1990. JFM promised important managerial concessions, including share in cash profit from the timber harvest to forest citizens, in exchange for management of state-owned forests. The government also asked the Forest Departments to invite village councils and NGOs to take part in the joint forest management schemes. Over a decade since its inception this volume examines the JFM, highlighting how state bureaucracy, local institutions and NGOs attempt to achieve the multiple goals of meeting subsistence needs, rural equity, sustainable forestry practices, and forest cover conservation. Investigating four institutions - village-based forest protection groups, the Forest Department, village councils, and NGOs - across the States of Jharkhand and West Bengal, the book focuses on forest citizens and how they interact with other JFM institutions. In doing so, it challenges notions of assumed virtues of moral economy and romanticized views of gender and indigenous knowledge and practices. The monograph also raises issues of social capital (local history, politics and leadership), common property resource (CPR) management and incentives for participation. While pointing out various inconsistencies that exist in the participatory forest framework, the book also shows the potential of JFM and suggests future directions forest management should take in India and elsewhere.

Book Synopsis Joint Forest Management by : Hemant Kumar Gupta
Download or read book Joint Forest Management written by Hemant Kumar Gupta and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joint Forest Management (JFM) is now a principal forest management strategy in India. The government views JFM as a pivotal strategy for addressing the national policy goal of achieving 33% forest cover by 2012. JFM represents one model of community based forestry in which the State engages with communities with forestry. Though the current JFM model is weighted in favour of state forest department control over planning, management, investment, harvesting and marketing. This book is an attempt to understand the evolution and introduction of the JFM principles and concepts of JFM. The combine influence of historical, social, economic, cultural and ecological factors along - with policy impacts in people's participation in managing forest is illustrated by taking case of North West Himalayas. Over the past several decades, the focus in forestry has shifted towards forest protection and conservation and JFM represents a key policy thrusts in India. JFM is continued to be evolved as the experiences from different states across India are informing the process of JFM implementation so that policy and guidelines to improve the program are revised by the central and state governments regularly. The process approach is being followed so that forests are managed sustainably with people's involvement in forestry programmes to improve the livelihoods of forest dependent people's and reduced poverty. The studies have demonstrated that the potential economic benefits from improved forest productivity and policy reforms in favour of JFM are huge, both for people and government.

Book Synopsis Enabling Environment for Joint Forest Management by : Shree Bhagwan Roy
Download or read book Enabling Environment for Joint Forest Management written by Shree Bhagwan Roy and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Joint Forest Management Programme, epitomising the 1988 national forest policy of the Government of India, set the country free from the shackles of over a century of bureaucratic straglehold. Centralisation of management was envisaged to give way to decentralisation, unilateralism to participatory decision-making and bureaucratisation to institutionalising people's participation in the protection, management and development of forests. But the policy-frame change-over has not been quick and effective. The involvement of the villagers into the programme where they could deliberate and ecide issues concerning their livelihood through the forest management is, by its nature, very delicate and difficult to achieve. Not only has the hard-crusted resistance to be broken down by winning confidence and proper education through information and knowledge, the due recognition tot he villagers' innate ability and wisdom has to be extended so as to make them equal partners in the implementation of the programme.

Download or read book Experiences from Participatory Forest Management written by Shree Bhagwan Roy and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social and farm forestry was introduced in mid-seventies to check massive forest destruction. its failure led the government to believe that for successful forest management involvement of the forest community is essential. To ensure their active participation the fringe dwellers must be convinced about the long term benefits of conservation. Government functionaries and NGOs should remain in background and entrust local people with the decision making, implementation and monitoring process. All these could be achieved only through PFM. In this book experts present a critical appraisal of its successful working in West Bengal and suggest improvements to exploit its full potential. Despite some problems mainly regarding sharing of benefits and employment opportunities, there is no viable alternative to PFM. The fact that even encroachers became protectors in Kolabari bears ample testimony to this. The excellent work done by the forest protection committees in stoping massive deforestationand smuggling of forest produce should get due recognition.
