Abstract

Apparently, at the royal forest academy of Tharandt (Germany), two different theories on forest sustainability have been taught and investigated. These are the two directions which are related to Cotta and Pressler. At first, these two approaches do not seem to be compatible, they even appear mutually exclusive. In the article, the attempt is made to understand these two approaches as interrelated. This will be realized by using Hayek′s theory of the forms of human orders. As a result, it is proposed to separate between forest sustainability in an external and in an extended order. For forestry today, solely the influence of forest sustainability of the external order seems to be of particular importance as a kind of informal institution. To interpret the common forest regulation as a guideline for a sustainable forestry in the extended order of market exchange is a fatal misunderstanding. Instead, the theories of human order might be applied as commencements for systematic studies of how the order of rules improves sustainable forestry and which order of rules prevents sustainable forestry from evolving.
