Abstract

Human Geography

Forestry Sciences

In this paper we aim to explore the nature of relationships between people and forests in the Asia-Pacific Region, including people who are heavily dependent on forests and those who make use of forest products, but do have alternatives. We are partly concerned with the effects of the actions of such people on forests; we are also concerned with the nature of dependency on forests and factors which impinge on patterns of dependency.
