The paper is a scientiic commented discussion with the aim of deining a framework which allows both a comprehensivevision of forest dynamics, as well as an adaptive management approach and policy procedures more suited to a changing and inherently unpredictable world.Main results: We identify the main challenges facing forestry in relation to recent developments in forestry thinking, i.e. the paradoxof aiming at sustainability in a changing environment, a shifting perception of the relationship between ecological and social systems,the recognition of forest ecosystems as complex adaptive systems, the need for integrating the social and ecological dimensions offorestry into a single framework, and the growing awareness of the importance of the ethical approach to the forest. We propose theconcept of “systemic forestry” as a paradigm for better understanding forest dynamics and for guiding management and public actionsat various levels. We compare the systemic approach with different silvicultural and forest management approaches which have beenproposed in the last decades.Research highlights: Our analysis shows that a systemic approach to forestry has ive main consequences: 1. forestry is viewed as apart of landscape dynamics through a multi-sectoral coordination, 2. the logic of action changes from norm to process, 3. conservationis a dynamic search for resilience, 4. multi-functionality is achieved through a multi-entries approach integrating ecological, social andeconomic components of sustainability, 5. forestry institutions are reframed to address the issue of changing interactions among actors,6. a change in the ethical approach to the forest is needed.Piermaria Corona was supported by the Project “ALForLab”(PON03PE 00024 1) co-funded by the Italian OperationalProgramme for Research and Competitiveness (PON R&C) 2007-2013, through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)and national resource (Revolving Fund—Cohesion Action Plan (CAP)MIUR)
