Komunista presents a most comprehensive and detailed history of the beginnings of what eventually became the Partido Komunista ng Pilipinas. It traces the roots of the movement to the labor federation formed from among gremios or guilds, neighborhood associations, and trade or shop associations of printers, tabaqueros, tailors, sculptors, seamen, and cooks. It provides portraits of the movement's leadership as it evolved through the years, notably citing personalities such as Isabelo de los Reyes, Juan Feleo, and Crisanto Evangelista.

While international efforts in the development of short rotation woody crops (SRWCs) have historically focused on the production of biomass for bioenergy, biofuels, and bioproducts, research and deployment over the past decade has expanded to include broader objectives of achieving multiple ecosystem services. In particular, silvicultural prescriptions developed for SRWCs have been refined to include woody crop production systems for environmental benefits such as carbon sequestration, water quality and quantity, and soil health. In addition, current systems have been expanded beyond traditional fiber production to other environmental technologies that incorporate SRWCs as vital components for phytotechnologies, urban afforestation, ecological restoration, and mine reclamation. In this Special Issue of the journal Forests, we explore the broad range of current research dedicated to our topic: International Short Rotation Woody Crop Production Systems for Ecosystem Services and Phytotechnologies
