Research Abstract |
The characteristic of forest ownership lies where it has transitional features, whereas arable land ownership has unitary and absolute features of Roman law tradition. Land Tax Revision. Assigning Ownership to Public and Private Entities in the Meiji Era and forest land policy afterwards tried to make common land public and nationalized, and hence brought forth complicated transitional land ownerships in various places. Even national ownership on forest land was recognized provided that partial right of utilization is granted, as can be seen in various institutionalization of local utilization.

It keeps local relations until today, such as granting to common land groups parts of revenue from forest products sales and land sales or fees from forest land utilization. As to recent tourism development in common lands, how development is carried out and how benefit is distributed are to a certain extent influenced by the type of land own

As to forestry by farmers, man-made forests afforested after the war attain thinning stage these days and these thinning trees yield profits by own family operation, forestry becomes active among combined management farmers in up land farming areas of montane agricultural villages. Looking around overseas situations, see trends to place,restrictions on forest land ownership for environmental protection and to meet increasing recreational demand. In some states of the United States of America, restrictions on forest operation are tightened. In Germany, Federal Forest Law was enacted, which provides right of entering forests and "recreational forests" where people can use forestsas recreational facilities. Less
