Creating forests with words — A review of forest-related discourse studies

Author

  • Leipold, Sina

Abstract

There is a new trend in international forest policy science. Over the past decade the term “discourse” has entered the field. Discourse analytical approaches and methods have become increasingly popular among scholars dealing with forests and their governance. When consulting the growing literature, one quickly notes the inconsistent use of the terms “discourse” and “discourse analysis”.
