An overview and assessment of how local communities in Mexico manage their forests for profit and sustainability.

David Barton Bray has spent more than thirty years researching and studying Mexican community forest enterprises (CFEs). In this book he shares the scientific evidence for Mexico’s social and environmental achievements and how, in its most successful manifestations, it became a global model for common-property forest management, sustainable social-ecological systems, and climate change mitigation in developing countries.
