AB  - Private forests are widespread in Europe providing a range of ecosystem services of significant value to society, and there are calls for novel policies to enhance their provision and to face the challenges of environmental changes. Such policies need to acknowledge the importance of private forests, and importantly they need to be based on a deep understanding of how property rights held by private forest owners vary across Europe. We collected and analysed data on the content of property rights based on formal legal requirements existing in 31 European jurisdictions. To allow a comparison across jurisdictions, we constructed an original Property Rights Index for Forestry encompassing five rights domains (access, withdrawal, management, exclusion and alienation). We documented substantial variation of the private forest owners' rights, and notably to i) make decisions in operational management and the formulation of management goals, ii) withdraw timber resources from their forest, and iii) exclude others from the use of forest resources. We identified broad relations between the scope for decision making of private forest owners and jurisdictions' former socio-political background and geographical distribution. The variation in the content of property rights has implications for the implementation of international environmental policies, and stresses the need for tailored policy instruments, when addressing European society's rural development, the bioeconomy, climate change mitigation measures and nature protection strategies.

AB  - All former socialist countries in central and eastern Europe have been undergoing a transition from one political system (based on a centrally planned economy and a one-party system) to a radically different political system (based on a market economy and a democratic political system). The formation of a free timber market and new modes of ownership have caused a change in the state forest sector as well. The primary objective of this article is to demonstrate the changes in state forest enterprises over the last 20 years in five selected countries of central and Eastern Europe: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Serbia and Slovakia. Country case descriptions of the situation are based on literature analysis, statistical data and expert opinions. The main findings of this study are the following: changes in ownership structure caused a reduction of the area managed by state forest management organisations in most case study countries; in all mentioned countries state forest enterprises have underwent changes in their organisational structure; a reduction of personnel in state forest enterprises and an increase in outsourced activities were observed. Methods of timber sales have altered during the last 20 years; in several countries, the state forest management organisations play a role in stabilising the domestic timber market. The importance of forest values, such as environmental protection and forest-related recreation, is also increasing in the state forest sector.
