About the book

Public Policies and the Misuse of Forest Resources by the World Resources Institute examines government policies that unintentionally accelerate tropical deforestation and natural resource depletion in Indonesia, Malaysia, West Africa and the United States. The book analyzes timber subsidies, tax incentives, land tenure laws, forest concessions, and policy reforms needed to promote sustainable forest management.
