摘要:

Although management and allocation of marine resources will have a major impact on the future of fishermen in America's coastal communities, it is also true that the future of commercial fishing as an occupation may also depend on what happens in the resource‐dependent communities where commercial fishermen live. This article presents a framework for analyzing the impacts of change in America's coastal communities on commercial fishermen. Two key concepts, gentrification and the “growth machine,”; are summarized and applied to nonmetropolitan coastal communities. Possible projects and policies and their impacts on coastal communities and commercial fishermen are examined. A general conclusion is that many coastal communities, particularly those experiencing rapid recreation‐related development, will have to take explicit steps to protect the land‐dependent portion of their commercial fishing fleet.

摘要:

If the aquaculture industry is to expand in the north central region of the United States in the next few years, it must deal with several important policy issues. These interrelated issues include the following: regulatory jurisdiction, control of predators, effluent regulation, introduction of nonnative species, product quality and safety, and definition of aquaculture as agriculture. A unified permit process is suggested.

摘要:

This field research was conducted at six toxic waste contamination sites, in both the United States and Canada, designated as areas of concern by the International Joint Commission. The study argues that the effectiveness of the “control capacity”; of industry is increased to the extent that communities are (or perceive themselves to be) dependent on a given industry and that this economic and political leverage is further increased in economically peripheral regions. The data also indicate that although initially economic decline increases local resistance to environmental protection, a sustained economic downturn tends to reduce industrial control capacity and increase local receptivity to alteration of industrial processes and policies.

摘要:

A widely held perception of acute environmental crisis in Khumbu, Nepal, led Western‐trained resource managers to join His Majesty's Government in the planning, establishment, and ongoing management of Sagarmatha National Park. An underlying sense of urgency led the park's planners to the hasty imposition of imported conservation ideology and techniques. Park planning and management was based on Western models and predicated on an apparently erroneous assessment of the nature, degree, and pace of environmental deterioration in the high Himalaya. National Park management initially failed to address actual environmental problems and undermined indigenous resource management practices.

摘要:

In compliance with environmental legislation and affirmative action policies of the 1970s, a generation of interdisciplinary and gender diverse professionals have been hired by the U.S. Department of Agriculture‐Forest Service. Two studies examine the first wave of these new employees (half of whom were women), finding most committed to their profession, involved with mentors, and integrating into the agency culture. When career development difficulties did occur, they were usually associated with type of profession rather than gender. Wildlife and fisheries biologists, new to the Forest Service, had more difficulty accepting and becoming committed to the agency than their forester or range manager colleagues. There were several important gender differences, with women usually the more satisfied about their current status and future Forest Service career prospects.

摘要:

Although public and interest group input to resource management policy and decisions is considered valuable and is ojien legally mandated, interactions between these groups and government agencies and officials are often marked by conflict and animosity. We examined two potential sources of conflict among these groups: differences among the decision preferences and values of resource managers, members of an environmental group, and the public; and discrepancies between the groups’ perceptions of each other's goal priorities or decision preferences and the actual responses. In general, the results provide evidence for a gulf not only between the actual responses of the three groups, but also between actual and expected responses. This indicates that finding a balance between the concerns of public and special interest groups and management mandates will involve not only assessing the positions of the three groups but also actively resolving discrepancies between expectations for others’ responses and their actual responses.
