Brunner and Christine H. Colburn. 330 $aOver the past century, solutions to natural resources policy issues have become increasingly complex. Multiple government agencies with overlapping jurisdictions and differing mandates as well as multiple interest groups have contributed to gridlock, frequently preventing solutions in the common interest. Community-based responses to natural resource problems in the American West have demonstrated the potential of local initiatives both for finding common ground on divisive issues and for advancing the common interest.The first chapter of this enlightening book diagnoses contemporary problems of governance in natural resources policy and in the United States generally, then introduces community-based initiatives as responses to those problems. The next chapters examine the range of successes and failures of initiatives in water management in the Upper Clark Fork River in Montana; wolf recovery in the northern Rockies; bison management in greater Yellowstone; and forest policy in northern California. The concluding chapter considers how to harvest experience from these and other cases, offering practical suggestions for diverse participants in community-based initiatives and their supporters, agencies and interest groups, and researchers and educators. 606 $aNatural resources$xGovernment policy$zWest (U.S.)$vCase studies 606 $aCommunity organization$zWest (U.S.)$vCase studies 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNatural resources$xGovernment policy 615 0$aCommunity organization 676 $a333.7/0978 700 $aBrunner$b Ronald D., $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01043948 701 $aBrunner$b Ronald D 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452022703321 996 $aFinding common ground$92485215 997 $aUNINA
