Reviews

J. L. Rhoades, Antioch University New England:
Though this work will be most relevant to readers in Canada or those with a specific focus in Canadian studies, it will also be a strong resource for individuals interested in forest governance and/or community-based resource management. Summing Up: Recommended.

Erika Bland:

This is the first anthology on the subject of community forestry to specifically examine the Canadian context … This volume provides insights into how policy and governance surrounding community forestry in Canada is being reshaped through strong public processes initiated by local residents and organizations … How will these kinds of political-economic negotiations affect the ongoing development of community forestry in British Columbia, as well as in other parts of Canada? For people on the ground grappling with these questions, Teitelbaum’s compilation provides a vital starting point.

David White:
“…[Community Forestry in Canada]'s layout in 14 stand-alone chapters makes it accessible, and it will be of interest to students studying social forestry or forestry practitioners working in the field of community forestry within the UK or worldwide […] Twenty-eight people contributed to this book and it is extremely well referenced, confirming it a useful source of information.

Kevin Hanna, professor, Department of Geography at the University of British Columbia Okanagan, and a coauthor of Community Forestry: Local Values, Conflict and Forest Governance:
This comprehensive collection of essays on community forestry will be an asset not only to those working in forestry policy but indeed to anyone working in the broader fields of community-based resource management in Canada.

Emily Jane Davis, professor, Department of Forest Ecosystems and Society at Oregon State University:
By bringing together many excellent scholars of community forestry and related themes, Sara Teitelbaum has created a comprehensive, analytically rich, and exciting assessment of community forestry in Canada.
