20.500.12556/RUL-134267 Comparative analysis of regulatory framework related to private forest management in Slovenia and Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina Forest policy and forest ownership patterns in Slovenia and the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH) have changed considerably in recent decades due to unprecedented scale of social, political and economic change. The distribution of ownership types varies between the countries % in Slovenia private forest ownership predominates (77%), while in FBiH only about 20% of forest is private-owned. In both countries, private forest properties are small-scale and fragmented, which affects management opportunities and the scale at which policy interventions need to be made. This paper analyses the Slovenian and Central Bosnia Cantonal Law on Forests to assess how the regulatory framework affects private forest owners% (PFOs) rights, forest management and accelerates cooperation of PFOs. Both laws impose exclusive rights and responsibilities of PFOs, as well as limitation on how they can use their forests. In both countries, legislation contains detailed regulations for forest management activities and stipulate that mandatory forest management plans (FMPs) are an important tool that supports the implementation of sustainable forest management. In Slovenia, FMPs are prepared as common plans for all forests regardless the ownership, while in FBiH the Cantonal Law prescribes a separate forest management planning system for private forests. To improve the efficiency of private forest management, both laws support voluntary cooperation of PFOs. From the analysis, it can be concluded that there is a need for better harmonisation of public and private interests in relation to forest resources, especially in the case of FBiH, and that the deregulation of property right is needed as well as that the level of involvement of PFOs in the forest policy making process is unsatisfactory, in most cases only formal. private forests forest law property rights forest management private forest owners' cooperation forest policy zasebni gozdovi gozdna politika zakon o gozdovi premoženjske pravice gospodarjenje z gozdovi sodelovanje zasebnih lasnikov gozdov true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2022-01-04 10:02:14 2022-01-04 10:02:18 2022-09-13 03:54:17 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 15 str. iss. 4 Vol. 67 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2021-11-15 630*6:630*9 2454-0358 10.2478/forj-2021-0016 68644867 https://doi.org/10.2478/forj-2021-0016 1 dbe8e137-6d3c-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=152630 RAZ_Pezdevsek_Malovrh_Spela_2021.pdf RAZ_Pezdevsek_Malovrh_Spela_2021.pdf 1 C82153391C5DA632CE7DDF77E6BBD7C9 7ec2b437f063c3022eef647ec8570f53a189cc9fa3b1f7ec9bbb07d2b525d4cd 500421b3-6d3d-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=152632 Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
