Abstract
The recurrent theme of this workshop is the sustainable development of forests focusing on Eastern and Central Europe. The ecosystem concept should by now be thoroughly familiar to all foresters. But how can one evaluate the term “sustainability” without understanding related fields? Where are the limits of those ecosystems, to what extent are these systems open? What do we know about the socio-economic operation, in the past, how we could apply some old, but forgotten ideas? What do the foresters think about joint projects with other cooperating engineers to realize the sustainability in forestry?
