The analysis of the evolution of forest management in the historical periods is an important tool in estimating changes of society's perception of forest resources. This paper describes in brief the historical evolution of forest management in Europe and in Japan and the motivations of these changes. In particular, the paper analyses three periods: pre-industrial (from the Middle-ages until the mid-17sup(th) century), industrial (from the mid- 17sup(th) until the mid-20sup(th) century) and the postindustrial period (from the late-20sup(th) century until today). For every period it describes the main management systems adopted and the theoretical aspects that have determined their development.
