Forest economics is a social science. Its purpose is the study of complexity surrounding forests and forestry, mainly natural production, property rights, competing uses, resource dynamics and time. The Swiss Forest Society aims to establish the science of forest economics in Switzerland, e.g. with this issue. Modern economics will be helpful in reaching this goal, owing to new approaches that take into account human behaviour,human preferences and institutional design.
