A project thematically close to CONCRIS is Giacomo Bonan's INWOOD ERC Starting grant. Approaching midterm, members of the Advisory Board (@pszaboenviro.bsky.social, @simonegingrich.bsky.social, Paul Warde and John McNeill) spent a few wonderful days in Transylvania talking forests and industry!

Yesterday we had a pleasant and fruitful workshop of like-minded researchers from three projects (INFEST, Vienna - CONCRIS, Brno - REFRESH, Ostrava) in Brno. Looking forward to further collaboration on 19th-century forests and forestry! @maschmid.bsky.social @simonegingrich.bsky.social

If one is interested in how peasants saw the situation around forests and wood resources, it is worth looking at the many hundreds of petitions they sent to the so-called "národní výbor/Nationalausschuss" in the revolutionary year 1848.

Forest statistics proper (rather than descriptions of forests in tax conscriptions for example) on a larger than local basis were first prepared in Moravia with the help of questionnaires. The results were published in the journal of Moravian and Silesian foresters in the 1850.

An excellent source of information on changes in tree species composition (and other things) in the 19th-20th centuries is the unpublished volumes of the so-called Historical forest research (Historický průzkum lesů) stored at the archives of the Czech Forestry Institute. Below is an example.

Were observable changes in the physical reality of forests consequences of crisis discourses and proposed solutions, or were such discourses rather adaptations to changing realities in the longue-durée history of forests?

Hello, everone! Welcome to the bluesky account of the CONCRIS project. The project will look at 140 years (ca. 1780-1918) of crisis discources in Czech forestry and coeval ecosystem changes in forests.
