“…As for private forest owners' associations, the importance of second-tier organizations is cited for CFs, too. These organizations work to represent members politically, but also share information and generate coordination, could pool resources, and provide capacity-building projects [79]. In addition, CFs can be a key actor in local networks, thanks to their ability to deal with the market and work with other players in their territory and within the value chain and cultivate strong partnerships with local governments.…”

“…However, variables related to the dimension "rules" are not only those defining the mere legal form, but they also frequently refer to governance structures, often meaning internal governance arrangements. These are the "means by which to infuse order, thereby to mitigate conflict and realize mutual gains" [107], to define decision-making processes and roles and distribute power and responsibilities [79] in a continuum of solutions between hierarchical and democratic governance structures, thus originating vertical vs. horizontal distribution of responsibilities. Formalized internal rules and regulations can be a very important feature, as reported for CFs [48,80], including disincentives and coercion (sanctions) as enforcement tools; meanwhile, positive incentives can be effective tools to motivate people and organizations, as an alternative to hierarchies [83].…”

The changes and challenges that are tackling the forest sector in recent decades have prompted governments and foresters to work hard to find innovative solutions. Research in the forestry domain has focused on product and process innovation, and more recently on business systems and social innovation. In addition, organizational innovation is recognized and documented. However, while consistent conceptualization work has been conducted for business models and social innovation, the organizational domain in forestry seems less clear, characterized by multiple actors and often overlapping in literature, while a clear framework to describe it is missing. This work proposes a conceptualization of the “organizational model”, a concept embracing different approaches to build an analytical framework used to describe and characterize organizations in the forestry sector. The framework is drafted referring to existing theories, then tested (and further developed) through a semi-systematic literature review on organizations operating in forest management in Europe that are identified, categorized, and characterized. This exercise confirms that forest management organizations can be described with several diverse arrangements and can be complex entities: a holistic and comprehensive approach is more likely to be used by policy initiatives addressing improvement of forest management.

“…As an area of research, CBE is still in a very nascent stage and hence the definition of CBE has been debated by many scholars (Butler and Current, 2021; Soviana, 2015; Woodfield et al , 2017). While some authors have focussed on the commercial nature of CBEs in defining them (Odero, 2004), others have emphasized on the characteristic features that differentiate a CBE from the conventional enterprises (Kerins and Jordan, 2010).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review of scholarly literature on community-based enterprise (CBE) through a bibliometric analysis and to comprehend the qualitative dimensions of research in this specific field. Design/methodology/approach The study is based on scholarly papers indexed in Scopus from 1990 to 2021. The bibliometric analysis focuses on journals, documents, writers, organizations and countries. VOSviewer is used for network visualization mapping of citation, co-citation, bibliographic coupling and co-occurrence of keywords. Findings The analysis of the bibliometric aspects of CBE literature reveals an upward trend in publication of CBE documents, with a significant increase of research productivity in the past few years. This behaviour shows that CBE is becoming increasingly popular among academics and practitioners. The document “Toward a theory of community based enterprise” by Ana Maria Peredo is the most cited document. USA has so far published the maximum number of documents in this field. Practical implications This study provides an overview of the current state of research in the subject as well as the primary themes explored in this burgeoning discipline, with the potential to help the researchers identify new topics and gaps that need to be investigated further. Originality/value This work contributes to the literature by conducting a bibliometric analysis that has not yet been explored. It gives an overview of the field’s organization as well as specifics on the major issues explored in this discipline.
