| is.evaluation.notes | The development conditions of Forest certification schemes as private regulatory environmental systems are analyzed. This is done for 117 countries by using economic, political and social data. The bottom line is that the social context is critical. The authors guess the social development as base for environmental protection (by comparing developed with developing countries). Environmental reasons are seen as incentives for forest owners to seek FSC-certification, compared to other schemes where economic reasons seem to be decesive. | |
| is.evaluation.quotes | Considering allcertification schemes, the higher the level of exports, the more motivated firms and forest landowners willbe to seek certification. | |
| is.evaluation.quotes | The results indicate that FSC certification affects in a statistically significant fashion the coefficient estimates of per capita GDP, proportion of wood product exports, structure of the economy and literacy, but not the intercept or other coefficients. | |
| is.evaluation.quotes | only developed countries have implementedtheir own certification systems, with poorercountries relying only on FSC certification. | |
