It analyses the actors affecting<br>the environmental relations of that field of industry,<br>first, in a global setting and, thereafter, in Russia.<br>Russian forests as contested spaces are then examined<br>by introducing the conflict over Karelian<br>forests and the efforts for forest certification in the<br>Nizhegorodsk Region. Theoretically, the paper draws<br>from discussions on relational spaces. It is concluded<br>that while the networks transgressing scalar limits<br>are essentially non-territorial, as a result of negotiations<br>between the actors involved in these networks<br>new territories in the Russian forest landscape are<br>produced.</p> ER -
