Summary:The concept of sustainable management was born from demographic and economic development which has drawn on forest resources to the point of threatening their existence. The principles of sustainable management, as they are defined today, appeared several centuries ago. This sustainable management was built as limits were reached, under pressure from the consequences of the disappearance, degradation and overexploitation of forests. Gradually, the concern for the renewal of forests – and the income, goods and services they provided –, long-term planning and the preservation of the forest cover has forged forest law but also a technical corpus, implemented by a dedicated administration: « Les Eaux et Forêts ». The notion of sustainable development, recognized at the global level since 1987, is a generalization to all the planet’s resources of an awareness that we have had on a national scale with our forests.
