Lauri Lähteenmäki: Green Gold Fever: Report about the state of forests in Finland

Contestation over the use of forests in Finland sets into the focus of landscape photography. Quoted statements for and against forestry – from authorities, politicians, and industry as well as researchers, activists, and local residents – are put into context when faced with straight photographs of landscapes transformed by forestry practices. Structuring over systematically collected materials, the comparison breaks down the politics of ruling the nature: whose voice are heard when the future of nature and humanity is made?

The book includes 76 photographs, 13 maps, and 120 media sources from a ten years period.
