The Challenge of Sustainable Forests:
Forest Resource Policy in Malaysia, 1970-1995
---
Fadzillah M. Cooke
Drawing on insights from her field work in both Pahang and Sarawak, the author examines the clash between the techno-bureaucratic drive of commercial foresters for a sustained income and the biological and the economic livelihood agendas of conservationists. She then compares her findings with the Philippine experience where issues of livelihood and social justice have had a greater influence on commercial forestry management than in Malaysia. 262 pages.
