Tropical timber atlas
This atlas presents technical information for professionals who process and use temperate or tropical timber. It combines the main technical characteristics of 283 tropical species and 17 species from temperate regions most commonly used in Europe with their primary uses.
The Tropical Timber Trade Regime
Gale explains why international negotiations have not produced a sustainable solution to tropical rainforest degradation. Using an innovative, critical approach to international regimes, the author analyzes the structure and operation of the International Tropical Timber Organization (ITTO). He shows how the timber industry and producing- and consuming-country governments created a blocking alliance that favoured developmentalist interests and ideas. The ITTO bolstered this alliance by permitting environmentalists merely to voice, but not to negotiate, their concerns.
Tropical Timber Products
This report on tropical timber trade provides a theoretical framework for assessing national competitiveness in 'further processing' industries. It includes key statistics and market data, as well as regional overviews on further processing of tropical timber in Asia and the Pacific, Latin America-Caribbean and Africa. Separate chapters discuss industry structure and location, employment and competitiveness, policy issues, future global demand and outlook for ITTO producers. This document also sets forth recommendations for ITTO, member governments, trade and industry associations for future action.
