Abstract

The aim of this presentation is to explain the main restrictions to forest management and other forest use in Finland. First, I will clarify the ownership structure of Finnish forests and the basic protection of ownership in the Finnish Constitution. Secondly, I will go discuss certain stipulations of the Forest Act and the Land Use and Building Act which limit the rights of the forest owners to use their own land and compare those with the mechanisms of the judicial protection of ownership.
