Being one of the basic elements of ecosystem forest is considered a public good and as such is subject to detailed legal restrictions. Particular kind of legal instruments of sustainable forest management is the planning instrument. Conducting planned activity is indispensable for effective administration, especially in spheres where both the action and the results pertain to a long term perspective. Implementation, by the Legislator, of sustainable forest management based on the idea of activity which leads to achieving normatively determined state inclines to making use of planning instruments. Indispensability of planning acts in the execution of sustainable forest management has been expressis verbis prejudged by the Legislator in article 7 of AoF, which states that sustainable forest management is executed in compliance with the forest management plan or the simpli2ed forest management plan. 4is solution is considered correct and should be granted an endorsement. Di7cult to accept, however, is the state of legal regulation of forest management plans, which constitute a fundamental instrument for the concept of sustainable forest management. Indeterminacy of legal forms of administrative action upon approving plans, and doubts regarding their legal character do not benefit their functioning resulting in vagueness, which leads to the state of legal uncertainty.

The main objective of the study was to obtain a better understanding of forestry conflicts, particularly in the context of the Bulungan Research Forest (BRF) in East Kalimantan. The results show that conflict took place between local people within a particular locality (settlement); between different localities; and between local people and various companies (e.g. logging, coal-mining) operating near their localities. In term of conflict resolution, the people from the communities have proposed three kinds of mechanisms for different types of conflicts. Those mechanisms are adat (customary laws), government involvement and negotiation. The key task one faces in undertaking conflict resolution is to manage its occurrence. The overall goal should not be to eliminate conflict; instead, it should be to adopt procedures or mechanisms for maximizing its potential benefits while minimizing its potential drawbacks. This study concludes that choosing the "best" conflict resolution mechanism is, in itself, a strategic choice. There is no single panacea for resolving any kind of conflict situation.

Metadata only record ; Previous efforts to try to halt the rapid decline in forested area in the world has failed, so increasingly natural resources managers are turning back to participatory approaches. This report analyzed to what degree these participatory methods meet the needs of the local people and are success and decrease the rate of deforestation. ; Available in SANREM office, FS

Business is neither a new branch of science, nor a recently emerged social or political phenomenon. We are not tend to discuss the history of management as obviously this field like many other activities stimulated by human includes own origin, gained experience and a certain retrospective. A modern world has strongly developed the concept of management thus becoming an integral and manifold idea. A number of published articles, text/books, recommendations, etc. represent different levels of writing. Moreover, corrections and supplements are made to the already available management theories and conceptions the new versions of which are also successfully created. The present structure of studies at university can be hardly imagined without varying courses on the subjects related to management. For the last two decades, the majority of countries around the world have faced the young generation engaged in management sciences; after graduating secondary school, a relatively large part of the youth keep on studying management sciences, i.e. a strong tendency reveals that graduates prefer social sciences and humanities. The reasons for motivation may vary. However, more frequently expressed opinions are those stating that such choice can be simply influenced by laziness experienced by a part of students, willingness to try, overcome difficulties, etc. Despite a notable lack of professionals in the field in technological sciences in a large part of countries, quite a few learners are greatly interested in social sciences. Supposedly, such choice can be the result of the existing stereotypes and rational motivation (less complicated entry to a university, easier studies, etc.). Lengthy discussions are inappropriate due to the fact that in-depth research on dominant motifs is required. This is important because today's young people are would-be leaders and managers and the degree of their motivation, purposeful choice and responsibility will affect not only the well-being of a certain organization but also that of particular society.

One of the main objectives of the 1994 Cameroonian forestry law is to improve the management of production forests by including minimum safeguards for sustainability into compulsory forest management plans. As of 2007, about 3.5 million hectares (60%) of the productive forests are harvested following the prescriptions of 49 approved management plans. The development and implementation of these forest management plans has been interpreted by several international organizations as long awaited evidence that sustainable management is applied to production forests in Cameroon. Recent reviews of some plans have concluded, however, that their quality was inadequate. This paper aims at taking these few analyses further by assessing the actual impacts that approved management plans have had on sustainability and harvesting of commercial species. We carry out an assessment of the legal framework, highlighting a fundamental flaw, and a thorough comparison between data from approved management plans and timber production data. Contrary to the principles adhered to by the 1994 law, we find that the government has not yet succeeded in implementing effective minimum sustainability safeguards and that, in 2006, 68% of the timber production was still carried out as though no improved management rules were in place. The existence of a number of approved management plans cannot be used a proxy for proof of improved forest management.
