Abstract

The model of forest transition from Chap. 2 is operational both ex ante for deforestation modeling and ex post reforestation modeling. Equally, it appeared relevant both in modeling among the maximum of 74 tropical countries as well as among the 32 sub-national units (states) of Mexico. Chapter 5 is composed of seven different sub-studies, which have various interactions and support of each other. The first section analyzed the roles of corruption and underpricing of stumpage on deforestation theoretically, with empiric data and literature review. The statistically significant role of corruption in increasing deforestation became supported by the modeling 74 tropical countries with seven other independent variables and by the modeling of 64 tropical countries with six other independent variables. Corruption was also significant in the reforestation or plantation forest model.
