It is intended as a tool for all movements alarmed at the social, political and environmental effects of these plantations. The authors, both of whom have been long involved in the plantations issue, divided their work on this book equally and were in constant consultation with each other across the Atlantic throughout its writing. Ricardo Carrere, based at the Instituto del Tercer Mundo in Uruguay, was responsible for drafting Chapters 4, 7, 8, 9 and 10; Larry Lohmann, based in the UK, for Chapters 2, 3, 5, 11 and 12. Chapters 1, 6 and 13 were jointly written. The authors have been helped with information, advice, translations and criticism by more people than it is possible to name. Among those to whom thanks are due are Chris Albertyn, Patrick Anderson, Ndinga Assitou, Bill Barclay, Isabel Bermejo, Teresa Brooks, Raymond Bryant, Owen Cameron, Chee Yoke Ling, Marcus Colchester, Saliem Fakir, Anna Fanzeres, Maurizio Farhan, David Fig, Mark Gandar, Ted Gutman, Alastair Graham, Helen Groome, David Hallowes, John Hanson, S.

None of these people, of course, would necessarily agree with all or any of the conclusions reached in the book. The authors appreciate the financial support of the Heinrich B"ll Foundation, NOVIB, and IDRC, without which this book could not have been written. Introduction To millions of people across the world today, the pulp and paper industry is a growing problem. The chipping of native forests to provide raw material for the industry is being opposed bitterly by local people and environ-mentalists from Australia to Finland, and from Chile to Canada (WALHI and YLBHI 1992, Hamilton 1995, PRS 1994, MacIsaac and Champagne 1994, WCWC 1994, Olsson 1995). No less widespread are protests at pollution from giant pulp mills which has sucked oxygen from rivers, ruined fisheries and drinking water supplies, and increased the burden of highly-toxic chlorinated organic compounds in animal and human bodies (BP 12.7.95, EBY 13.3, Greenpeace International 1994). This book is concerned with a third activity of the pulp and paper industry _ one which is often less well-publicized and which, at first glance, might seem more benign: planting trees. To help feed pulp and paper mills, vast monocultures of conifers, eucalyptus, acacia, and other species are being established both in the North and, increasingly, in the South, where fast tree growth, inexpensive land and labour, and lavish subsidies combine to make wood especially cheap. As swatches of exotic trees invade native woodlands, grasslands, farmlands and pastures, the results, in country after country, have been impoverishment, environmental degradation, and rural strife. In documenting the often-hidden record of industrial pulpwood plantations in the South and what lies behind them, this book hopes to contribute to new ways of thinking about one of the world's most important industries as it undergoes rapid globalization. Commercial plantations and forests Plantations, like forests, are full of trees. But the two are usually radically different. A forest is a complex, self-regenerating system, encompassing soil, water, microclimate, energy, and a wide variety of plants and animals in mutual relation. A commercial plantation, on the other hand, is a cultivated area whose species and structure have been simplified dramatically to produce only a few goods, whether lumber, fuel, resin, oil, or fruit. A plantation's trees, unlike those of a forest,

E-mail address: [email protected] Abstract The large-scale pulp investment model, with its pressure on land, has created conflict and caused major disagreements and open hostility amongst the social movement and NGO networks, state actors, and the pulp and paper companies in Brazil. In this article, Ethical Analysis was applied in the assessment of the dynamics and possibilities of conflict resolution related to the expansion of pulpwood plantations in Brazil's Bahia State, particularly near Veracel Celulose. Ethical Analysis as a tool identifies the complex dynamics of contention through identifying bridges and rifts in the social, ecological and economic viewpoints of the main actors. The analysis was based on field research, interviews, and a review of existing literature. The results indicated that the conflict is marked by politics of power, and as long as this stage continues, the politics of cooperation and conflict resolution would be hard to achieve.

INTRODUCTION Indian has the generis of using „Toddy Leave‟ (Tala Patrh) to exchange views in written form since time immemorial. India‟s Paper industry, as one of the old and core industrial manufacturing sector with a bearing on socio-economic development has undergone a significant change during the last three decades, especially after liberalisation. In India this industry plays a vital role in the overall industrial growth and also provides a necessary medium to propel our knowledge based economy forward in the new millennium. The word paper is derived from the “Latin” word “Papyrus” and from French “Papier”, Paper is basically composed of vegetable fibers mattered together to form into sheets. “Payprus” is a kind of grass material. Papyrus is an aquatic plant which grew in abundance in the delta of the Nile in Egypt. In an understandable language it means a sheet formed by the composition of vegetable, mineral, animal or synthetic fibers or mixtures with or without the addition of other substances into liquid vapour, or gas so that the fibers are intermeshed together. Several attributes of paper, including its pedagogic and packaging value makes Paper industry uniquely positioned among the manufacturing industries. Paper, is thus, recognized almost as a touchstone of socio-economic development. This traditional Indian paper sector had leverage and played a pivotal role in laying the foundation for economic growth.
