    This book explores historic and future outlooks as well as current tradeoffs and methods in forest governance and management. It emphasizes the generality and complexity with empirical data from Sweden and internationally.

    It first investigates, from a historical perspective, how previous forest policies and discourses have influenced current forest governance and management. Secondly, it explores methods to realise alternative forest futures and how the results from such investigations may influence the present. Thirdly, it examines current methods of balancing tradeoffs in decision-making among ecosystem services.

    "This readable book is aimed at international forest researchers, as well as forest managers, practitioners and policy makers. The book is written in accessible style with sufficient introduction and explanations such that little prior experience of the topic is needed to use the information in the book effectively. Although not stated, it appears especially useful for Swedish audiences and academics in the field of forest governance and practice.." - Verina Ingram, Assistant Professor, Wageningen UR in International Forestry Review Vol.20(1), 2018
