Prudham employs a political economic approach to explain the social and economic conflicts arising from the timber industry's presence in the region. As well, he provides a thorough accounting of the timber industry itself, tracing its motivations, practices, and labor relations. 606 $aLumber trade$xEnvironmental aspects$zNorthwest, Pacific 606 $aEnvironmental policy$zNorthwest, Pacific 606 $aForests and forestry$xEconomic aspects$zNorthwest, Pacific 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLumber trade$xEnvironmental aspects 615 0$aEnvironmental policy 615 0$aForests and forestry$xEconomic aspects 676 $a333.750795 700 $aPrudham$b W.
