文摘

Economic, ecological and political factors contributing to or inhibiting forest transition in nine countries in Asia, including China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Republic of Korea, Philippines and Vietnam, were examined. Using qualitative comparative analysis method the conditions for forest transition to occur or not to occur were identified. There are two potential conditions for forest transition to occur: 1) liberalization of timber import, and 2) private forest ownership or forest tenure enabling entrepreneurship to be operationalized for efficient land use decision making by individuals. This corresponds to the conditions for forest transition not to occur, which include: 1) supply of timber from other countries is tightly controlled by the government, and 2) public land ownership under which entrepreneurship cannot operate in land use.
